Weird list. The Triumph choices seem ridiculous - Stag and TR7 over TR3-6 and Spitfires :?: , BMW Z1 over 507?, Jensen Healey :? , Delorean :shock: , Opel GT -good luck finding one that doesn't belong in the crusher. Where's the MGA, XKE, Sunbeam Tiger? Surely Ferrari deserves at least 2 entries.

Neat, I have two on the list. Not bad for a starting-out motor-head I suppose. I was plesantly suprised to see my Delorean on the list.. usualy the auto press/those who haven't driven one are predisposed to be unkind to it. Certainly one of the top ten 'geek' cars.
