    Same premise as the similar sounding thread in AH but for cars.

    Hyundai i20, something very 80's Peugeot about them to me, just needs a GTi version.

    I'd love one of the new Honda Jazz as a poker for around town! I have no idea why, I detest small cars with a fury from the pit of my stomach!

    Would like an RX-8 for a bit.

    Think some people are missing the point of something unusual.

    BMW i3 really didn't like it when I first saw it but the quirkiness and it being different it has grown on me. Rented one for a few day's on holidays last year they are great fun to drive. Like a go kart!

    Same, specifically the R3 that is pre June 2008 for the cheaper tax.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,140 ✭✭✭James Bond Junior


    I wanted a Rover 600 as a teen.

    Toyota FJ cruiser is on my possible list when I hopefull move to the Miiddle East in August.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,451 ✭✭✭CharlieCroker


    The last model Ford Scorpio with the cosworth V6. Have no idea why but always had a soft spot for them, even if they look like a fish. Feck all left on the road too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,286 ✭✭✭Stoolbend


    I actually like the BMW 5 series GT.

    I didn't like the Fiat Stilo when it came out but I think they've aged really well style wise and find myself second glancing at them when I see one.

    I love the Skoda Yeti, look great and are apparently very functional.

    My brother was looking at one a while back and looking at picking it up. An armoured one that was used by Kofi Annan apparently.

    Had a problem with the windows. Condensation between the armoured layers I think.

    Kia soul, lovely looking cars.

    I was in one recently and they are fantastic inside, especially in the back. Pity about the outside though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,473 ✭✭✭robtri

    There was an armoured one in the back yard of Fitzpatrick's Ford in Bray for years with a similar issue. Could've been the same car. Was an ex Embassy car, not sure who's though.

    I remember opening the door, weighed an absolute tonne. Was told it only did 8mpg
