Never really cared about cars, though I have owned more than I can remember, my favourite's are the ones that start when you turn the key. My usual ride is an F150 Truck

Cars ,trucks etc always been a big part of my working life, employed as transport manager for nearly 30 years and got to drive all sorts. directors cars always seemed to be the classic Mercs , BMW. various other luxury shag mobiles I got to drive, my own far more lower down the budget scale and the usual a to b conveyance boxes, one I did have for a while was a Fiesta XR2, oh my what a little beast, for what was a little family run a round and give it some bollocks was a real joy.
Favourite cars I've owned have been a 1960 Vauxhall Cresta PA - grey/green with leather bench seats, column change, great shape, great 'puller'. Took it to Shepherds Bush a few times before it died.
Had a gold 1976 Capri that was a bit of a sheep in wolf's clothing (1.6GL), but I loved it!
Working overseas in 1970s/80s, often in rough remote areas, all I wanted and needed was a good old-fashioned Land Rover with low ratio gears, red 4wd button and crank handle when desperate! - nothing fancy.
Got my first one in about ‘96, had it mint, sold it after a few years and regretted immediately. Got another one a couple of years after but then sold again with kids on the horizon, and again regretted straight away.
This is a bit of me, love it but I seem to remember it’s not so great interior wise. I had a Capri 2.0GL back in the late 80’s that I used to get tuned. Great fun in the dry, death trap in the wet (those who had one will know). Currently drive an Audi S5 with the 3.0 V6 petrol engine and it’s wonderful. Totally impractical but when you leather it, it has a fantastic yowl engine noise.
Got that same red Guilia but the veloce trim, 2023. Interior is pretty good if you spec it out and my interior is a cool red. Infotainment system is a bit clunky but it’s not about that. My only gripe is it’s bit over engineered.
The Quadrofologio is a different animal but only under the hood.

Absolutely mental cars.
I used to work with a young lad in the early 90’s who had one of those. Anyway, one Friday evening he left work in Basingstoke to visit his girlfriend at Uni in Cardiff, fought the traffic on the M4 only to arrive to be told he was dumped! Understandably very upset went outside to find his car had been stolen and had to get the train home the next day! Police found it trashed a few days later! In a construction office back in those days you can imagine how that went down, sympathy was sadly lacking, in fact I was almost crying with laughter!
The Panther Six - based on an F1 Tyrrell car.500CUinch Cadillac V8 with twin turbochargers though a 3 speed auto box.Capable of over 200mph. My bruv Steve knew Bob Jankel when they were both working in the rag trade.There was a showroom up Park Lane where this was displayed.
I’ve been thinking about trying something different for an upcoming event and was considering a party bus hire in Liverpool https://www.limohireservicesmanchester.co.uk/ . It looks like a fun way to celebrate with a group, and I’d love to hear if anyone has tried it before. How was your experience, and do you think it’s worth it for parties or special occasions? Let me know your thoughts!
