Mmmmmm top speed of 120mph (where its name is derived from) and drums all round - nice until you want to stop.

The later 140 was the first Jag to have the option of a 3 speed auto box

It was a 4 speed manual afaik


How about a Daimler Dart? (AKA SP250)

It's dead. It's off the twig, it's kicked the bucket, it's ceased to be!
The Camaro is gasping it's last breath. Again.
GM announced production will cease the end of its current iteration in 2023.
Sales just suck. They can't meet the Mustang or Challenger numbers, so out it goes.

Which is shocking, because the Challenger has been basically untouched since it came out. And the Challenger has something called the Scat Pack, which is an option where, I assume, they just rub shit all over your car.

How about this one, seen at the local dealer today. And yes, it's a real one.

Some questions first

Just one?
To just own or also to drive?


As much as I want to say the California 250 GT Spyder (either the SWB or the more relaxed, possibly even prettier LWB) or the F40, or even the Daytona, I think I have to go with the first Ferrari I ever fell in love with. Perhaps, I think, the first car I ever fell in love with. The Dino 246 GT/GTS.

[Seriously]

Dream Ferrari - go...

Naw, you need a Ferris Bueller

Naw, you need a Ferris Bueller

I mean, that might be the best looking car of all time.
