Baccy Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Very exotic looking cars, MGs certainly have a loyal fanbase. I have a friend who rebuilt an mgb from the ground up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcarlson Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 What year is #2? Windshield is throwing me. The early Corvette (53-54) was a poser compared to this. Guessing the same era, but hell if this Yankee knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply stunning cars. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was waiting for the new GTV to replace my Merc C250 Coupe, until Fiat Chrysler decided to cancel it and focus on SUVs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Gargett Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 canadian mate of mine in sydney used to drive a fabulous old MG. i always thought it looked great but would be a pain. he was taller than i am and i could not believe it was not uncomfortable. then he took me for a drive. just wow. i had all the footroom i ever needed. still not sure how. loved it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching a friend of my father’s house, pet sitting when I was quite young. they had a white one and I found the keys. Being an impetuous youth of course I had to take it for a drive. Fantastic though not entirely reliable. Ended up getting caught out. Great memory! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post fokker4me Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2020 My old Merc is greatly reliable, but a dull machine to drive. There is something to be said of understated straight slab sided cars that show class. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post fokker4me Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2020 Now this was a car I had on a poster of as a kid, when the opportunity came to finally own one I jumped on it. I love the lines one an XJS. The rear buttresses they flow into the rear quarter panel are something that won't be duplicated. Let's not talk about reliability, it isn't. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fokker4me Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 The 1949 Buick had some lines. This is the opposite of a hoot to drive. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fuzz Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2020 For me, sexiest lines on a car.... the C1 Corvette 1957-59. Can never go past without stopping and staring. One of these days I will own one. 1957 1959 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is something to be said of understated straight slab sided cars that show class. I'm looking at picking up a 1991 350SDL soon, for a song. Obviously much later than this example, but it still embodies, in my mind, the spirit of The Merc. I imagine there should be a general or dictator riding in the back, with flags flying from the boot. I love the whitewalls and hubcaps. Class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GolfT3 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Don’t forget the Toyota luxo barge, the century. Like the lovechild of a Fleetwood and a Maybach. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
