Just reading this post I have a whole new level of appreciation for our members:

Firstly Oz: "Oh, you lucky plick", Baracade with the GT40 and then Meck with a Jensen Interceptor!!!!! My God.

Mine would be a really old shool Honda fast back thing that I saw at The FF & R Jamboree a couple of years ago. Think it was like a sixties model something with only like a 800cc motor. RWD. Looked awesome.
