Of all the cars
Various | 8 September 2017 | Army Air Corps

And now, for something a bit amusing for a Friday. This is a call to all automotive enthusiasts, motorheads, car nuts, etc.

I ask the following question: Of all the vehicles that you have driven, what car (or truck) have you owned that you loved in spite of its faults, quirks, and foibles? As a follow-up question, what made that flawed vehicle so endearing to you?

1968 Jaguar Mk2 340:

Unrealized potential. Nothing more needs to be said.

My current car. 2005 Audi A4 Avant with factory lowered suspension, six speed manual, V6, and all options. Bought from a guy I never knew but who seemed to know exactly what the next owner would like. Still mint except for the shift knob, which shows wear.
Before that, 1983 Toyota Supra GTS I bought new and kept for 20 years.

I like the design of those cars - they never fail to turn my head.

Yellow’s good for cabs and school buses but the shite for Porsches.

Nothing says "hello there" like a yellow car.

The 2002. One of my dream cars.

Then again, I have a big list.

Starting with the 911.
