I don't much care about the colour and can drive fast cars well and parallel park better than 99% of people, but I just don't get that excited about cars. As long as it drives well, is reliable and fit for purpose that's fine.

Currently driving:

Jeep Cherokee - for work / school run
Dodge Charger R/T - for pleasure.

As for dream cars, I quite fancy myself in a Maserati... or an Escalade.

Would like one of these lancias for fun or even one of the old mark 2 escorts but I doubt any of the old cars mentioned here would be liveable as a day to day car.



The money no object car would be some variation of this :

I don't know how anyone can have a new car in Cairo, it gets scratched or dented within hours of ownership.
A nice 40 year old Peugeot 504 with crash bars, and a blindfolded driver will do the trick.

Good Lord. Thats even crazier than what the locals here think their cars are worth.

Edit: Though I bet the Escort doesn't still have the plastic bags on seats, door handles and import sticker in the middle of the windscreen................
