My dream cars are easy.
I really want to be a rally driver so I would have a Grp N Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 9 and then a Suzuki Swift S1600. If I get into the WRC I'd drive for Subaru.
My dream car is the Ford RS200.
I would love to give my mates a drag!(fastest accelerating car in the world!)

This will be weird-but a Ford mark 2 escort! Fantastic, fun rally car. I have a huge appreciation for it. If we are off the subject of rally cars-I also love the 69 Mustang Mach 1-Eleanor (OOH!) Lovely-and pricey as well. Another one for the drool collection-The Judge-69 Pontiac GTO-oh yeah. These are pure 'dream' cars though-unless i win the lotto I won't have the cash for either  As previously mentioned I have a love of Subaru's too-and that's mainly come through my rallying interests. I have a '04 subi RS-I love it, and at the time I was drooling over a suped up '03 WRX-WRBlue. It was a bit pricey because of the modifications it had, so i opted for the RS-which was also modified. I won't part with my car but one day I would like to go the whole hog and get an STI or 'HOT' REX-won't happen for a while though. |

Ironic that my cousin's latest rally car will be a modified MKII escort. He is hoping to have it ready for the Nrth Irish championship next yr. Needless to say having missed out on a drive in his ex-works escort WRC I hope I can visit while this car is in his garage  |

oooo...dream car. Wow so many to list. lol Rally car wise I would love a full blown WRC Ford Focus, Subaru Impreza, Suzuki Swift, and a 206. Sport car wise; Top of the list is a Ferrari Modena Stradale. I have had a love affair with that car ever since it was introduced.  Road car wise: Mini Cooper S(the original) is up there. Also a Lotus Elise. Cars that can be modified and be a lot of fun! |

Speaking of Dream Cars
I have two. I guess I am a throw back to the US factory race cars. 1) 1963 Doge RamCharger. The car is totally stock with a 426 hemi two four barrel engine. No one aspect to this car is aerodynamic. The car did the 1/4 mile in the 11 second ranege. The best thing about the car is that it looked like a car your grandfather would drive. 2) 1970 Dodge Daytona. It did the Daytona race course at 200 MPH. It was eventually banned because GM and Ford could not keep pace.

My list would be WAY too long to mention!  I'm a competition man and road cars do not do a whole lot for me. I have lost my licence twice and don't plan on doing it again! A 70's or 80's F1 car would be right up there for me. I just adore F1. Rallying it would have to be a Lancia Delta Integrale or a full spec Group B Audi Quattro. WRC Suby Petter won his first tarmac rally in would be special as well. Great story that week-end. |
