Doctor John Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) For me I started with a Mini Van, progressed onto a Triumph Herald, to a Triumph Vitesse 2 Litre, Then another Vitesse 2 litre, couple of escorts including a van, Transit Van, Rover V8 manual, BMW 735i. I loved the Vitesse, great litttle cars, straight 6 engines , twin strombergs, I loved the Rover V8 engine noise, mine was the P6 model, (same as Rover 2000), but, The BMW was a peach, it had it all, so for me my top 3 would be...... 1. BMW 735i. 2. Triumph Vitesse 2 Litre. 3. V8 Rover P6. Edited February 21, 2005 by Doctor John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
