    apologies as I don't know how to do the shortened linky thing and have never bothered to find out
    I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

      I wanted Joe90's flying car or an SPV.

      In fact I still do.
      I am not qualified to give the above advice!

        I tried to get a picture of an SPV - but couldn't get a decent one

          Google for Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle instead.

            I'm sorry but all your motorists are responsible for 300,000 deaths every year.

            The only car I lust after is one powered by lentils.

              Knight Rider of course!

              Could have bought it for £76,000 a while back:

                  Apart from one or two just before the amalgamation with Jaguar...

                  Ah. There was the V8 2.5l version of the MkII Jag.

                  I am fairly sure the Sovereigns were V8s...... but we are talking about 30 years ago and my old head is pretty soft and befuddled due to many years of drinking etc since....

                    I liked hot rods, souped up minis and Capris when I was a kid. The most expensive car I saw was a old Jag with multicoloured panels owned by the scrap yard dealer.
