Daily Classic

Big Nasty

Considering getting another, more practical, classic to use as a daily. The 6.6 ain't an option for an everyday car so looking for something that still has a bit of 'umph' and plenty of style.

What would you like to have as a 'practical daily'?

Here's a few of my considerations:

Practical, reliable, easy to fix and a bit different?

1. XR4i
2. Celica
3. Volvo

Looking at getting an XR4i myself.

Triumph 2000 Mk1



Opel Manta

I DO like that manta, But off that list I would go for that xr4i very rare.
ONly ever seeen 1 before and it did not even have the orignal pepper pots, just pepper pot hub caps.

That's not an XR4i Spooky, may be an XR4X4 though.

..........I'd say its a 2.0iS.

I haven't seen an XR4i for years .......road tax would be a killer though !
