Are there any classic car fans here?
I've always loved the classics. Both my dad and grandfather loved them so I think I must take after them. Growing up I remember them both having a lot of different classic cars, one of the highlights was my Grandad's MK2 Ford Granada 2.8 Ghia X, in stunning gold. He still had it when I was 8 but sold it on ebay when he gave up driving.
I've been a hobbiest classic car restorer for several years and am looking in to setting up my own workshop with my wife, who though doesn't really like cars she puts up with my constant chit chat about them! She's good like that!
Do you have a favourite classic?
I think one of my favourites has to be Vauxhall Royale coupe. I thought these were absolutely gorgeous cars inside and out.
What wasn't to like?
But I'm a fan of them all to be honest. I love the old Triumphs,Vauxhalls, Jaguars and BMWs. Currently restoring a Vauxhall Chevette and in the process of getting my grandfather's old Senator back on the road.
Still some ways to go with the Senator I fear...
Not sure if this is a classic, I photograph anything that takes my fancy.
My username says it all, I alway wanted Campervan!
I’ve worked on classic cars since I was a child, I didn’t play with other children. I now restore cars for a living. I took the workshop photo today. The pink Cresta is mine.
Lovely car that, excellent series...
I love cars the classics never die. I hope you will get yourself a Royale one day, lovely cars. Though I have to say the Senator is in a class all of its own. The police over here were big fans, the criminals, not so much...
A sight many will remember from the early 90s, usually on the motorways.
A classic I've always dreamed of owning is the Porsche 944. I always adored the style of the 944 and have been hoping to buy one for some time. It is, dare I say, my dream car.
Celica GT4! I love whole homologation rally car thing. A friend had a similar aged Supra which was so incredibly 90's inside, these have a pretty similar layout.
Would love to have one or even drive one. if I had endless money and space I would have one just for driving B roads
Indeed
Same. Inspector Morse car.
