    As long as you go diesel Disco 3 and 110 aint too bad on mpg, my mates D3 gets 30-35mpg full loaded on a trip, and the clans 110csw turns around 30. Now dream 4x4 in the bracket would be an overfinch RR sport (based on the disco3 chassie), or somebody did pay them to make a 150mph defender 90, they basically dumped a 90 body on a rnage rover running gear, and built the insides out of the pair. Or go Bowler

    F40 TBH. Saw one given a mild thrashing at the 2008 Excel motorshow, glad I did. There was a time when you could get one for less than £150k....

    The RS200 and Lancia Stratos is a good call. I always loved the Delta, infact, I think the Delta and the Alfa 155 touring car version were my most used cars in the last Gran Turismo

    Re: your Dream Car?

    I'm actually really impressed lotus finally released the evora.



    I still have the original concept picture from when I was around 8 (I think it was called an M250 then) having spent the day at lotus behind the scenes (twas a good day given my original dream car )

    If practicality wasn't an issue the it would have to be a Zonda R



    But money no object that I would actually buy then it would have to be a GTR... they do look brutish in the flesh

    Which rally cars would you like to see?

    I've already mentioned the Metro 6R4, Lancia Stratos and RS200 as well as the evo's being mentioned (which might as well be classed as rally cars..)
