someone was talking about this the other day and I hope you can help.
what the fuck is a jensen interceptor?

it's a big silver pile of testosterone, rust and awesomeness.

( janet aylia y'all motherfuckers need jesus, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:25, archived)

mostly rust.

Speaking of awesomeness.
I might buy one of the new Delorians.
Either that or a new Schwimwagen

*not gta london, the other one.

my next door neighbour had one when i was a kid.
he fired it up one sunday and my dad's shed windows fell out.

I wish my shitty astra did that.
It sounds like a tractor because I've managed to blow all the silencing hair out the scrapyard exhaust.

And the radiator is out of a corsa with stilts added to the bracket from an old clothes horse.

Astras seem to keep going forever though

It's possibly both the sexiest and most impractical object ever to leave an English factory
and was essentially an English shell made of leftover Ford bits with a 7.2 litre Chevy V8 stuffed under the bonnet. The Interceptor FF was also the first 4WD passenger car in the world, predating the quattro by nearly 15 years.

It's in my Top 5 Cars To Keep Forever

I wouldn't mind knowing what the other 4 are please?

( MONO!, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:29, archived)

The trouble is, I have a wider pool of Cars I'd Like To Own For A Bit
and some cars get upgraded. I'd love a Facel Vega and a Bristol, and both were in the Top 5, as was the Reliant Scimitar GTE and the Jaguar XJS, but I couldn't keep all five. So I'd have one of these as my Luxury Sedan, but also a Steyr Haflinger or a LuAZ for the weekends.

Not a classic Volkswagen then?

( MONO!, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:35, archived)

that's an oxymoron if ever I saw one
I'd properly sexually love an Audi Ur-quattro though
( Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:36, archived)

I'd love a 1940 Kubelwagen

( MONO!, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:38, archived)

Kubelwagen

Haflinger

LuAZ
( Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:42, archived)

Personally, it's kubelwagen all the way for me.
And not that shitty 1960's remake either.
I saw a 1945 kubelwagen for sale once, it was £45,000 :(

Those VW owners will pay through the nose for anything with genuine Nazi heritage

Let's face it though.
Nazi stuff is cool.
ESPECIALLY Nazi Zombies.
( MONO!, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:50, archived)

Someone round the corner from me had a green scimitar.
Cool as fuck. Hard to believe the same company came out with the plastic pig.
( Slippery Mick ‏, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:36, archived)

scimitar goddess

They are tasty, but you can't do body repairs to them
and the electrics are made of strawberry laces

what about a maserati cotsin zagato coupe?

( mark morrisons prison shoes I love Willie, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:40, archived)

I don't really like supercars, I prefer Grand Tourers
I'd like to own a Morgan +4 for a bit though, because my grandfather did the Monte Carlo in one, and I also like the Ferrari Breadvan
( Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:44, archived)

fair enough but it's such a beautiful car.

( mark morrisons prison shoes I love Willie, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:45, archived)

I don't deny it, almost every car from before the 60s was pretty in a way
but I prefer the cruising bruising bulk of the Tatra T603 or the sharkfin Tatra T87 to the curvaceous waves the Italians were producing.

De Tomaso Pantera though...

I'm reading that as "Classic VWs are pretty"

no, but he pushed an Austrian's Bentley off a cliff

( Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:48, archived)

lucky for Cliff he was there, and he survived?

( mongychops, Fri 9 Mar 2012, 12:50, archived)

No I'm afraid not, we lost Andy the next day

Over mucho Grande?

No I don't think I'll ever get over mucho Grande, those wounds run pretty deep
