    I've a thing about these "pre fall of the wall" autos.


    Just back from a weekend in Krakow where OH and I did an afternoon tour in a trabant. It was really good fun. Same colour as the one in your pic but it had big flower stickers all over. Happy days :)

    My current daily driver is my Ideal. A 1996 Honda Legend JDM.

    Its automatic, its got seats that can massage my bum and they're heated, a drinks cooler/fridge, and its got an working television. Reclining rear seats too.

    Theres no better feeling when sitting in traffic in the middle of town when I can pop on the heated seats, select no.2 massage (slow, circular, back & bum), fiddle around with the TV or sat nav and look over at Joe there with his new diesel Avensis which he bought because of the "cheeep tax" The €1809 for tax on just one car is somewhat a downfall.

    E36 328i. Plenty of fun without M3 bills. Z3 Mcoupe "breadvan" also a jaw dropper for me. Both cars are very rare in this country. Silly browser wont allow me to show pic but heres a link...

    Small van with a bit of swish would suit me down to the ground. "Ideal" for the Djing and enough room to sleep in the back if called for.

    i know they're not expensive. i had the 1.8 a few years ago and even that was too expensive to run for me :( .

    BMW M5. For as long as I've been interested in driving, that's my dream car. Fast, not too excessive and still has practicality.

    As long as I stop being such a lazy arse and put some effort into my career, I could have one some day

    Yeah my mates is the twin turbo....he swears it's not that thirsty on fuel but I suspect otherwise. Which would explain why he never bloody comes over to visit me anymore, I always have to go to his place ;)

    Lovely noise off it though, and sh1t loads of traction in all conditions. Cheap thrill!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭b318isp


    Christ, impossible question...but.......


    BMW E30 M3 Evo II
    Ford RS500 or a Sapphire Cossie
    Lambo Miura
    BMW M Coupe

    Toyota GT86 or BMW 123d if I'm paying the bills.

    ....would do for the meantime.
