Hummer - Hmmmmm are you sure you're not from Texas, that sounds like a very Houston type vehicle to me. https://www.ubeaut.biz/2gunsfiring.gif
I too am a car enthusiest. Which means that I don't really have just one favorite, I have about 20, depending what I'd be doing with the car. :eek: :D
I have chosen a few to share..... in no particular order. ;)
The two new models released by Elfin late last year look like great fun.
The SL65 AMG by Mercedes. A 450kw, 1000nm, twin turbocharged 6 litre V12 is very hard to argue with.
Throw in a nice looking convertable coupe with a folding metal roof.
My absoulute favorite pure sports car is the Pagani Zonda, a low volume rocket, hand made in Italy.
For highway crusing I'd go with the Brabus Maybach. You take your boring, average Maybach and hand it and your cheque book to German tuning company Brabus.

Give me a good old Falcon wagon any day. They're cheap as chips, go for ever, they're big inside, you don't care if the kids throw up in them and no-one wants to steal them. I bet you blokes with your fancy-schmancy cars wouldn't throw half a cubic metre of blackbutt flooring in the back seat. I'd get a ute but the kids don't like getting wet.
Probably a Kings Cross working girl :p as a sideline to pancake making :DQuote:

Although I own a Landcruiser Prado I am still rather partial to Volvos, but only up to the 240 series.
It was a red letter day when a volvo won the Australian Touring Car Championship. It put a lot of noses out of joint, particularly Dick Johnson who used to like to try and knock those lovely big bumpers off.
Well no actually. I have a chap who takes care of all that sort of thing.Quote:

Bloody big "yank tank" 4wd, that would be wonderful off road if it weren't so bloody wide. Around here you'll have to tkae a chainsaw to all the trees along the tracks to be able to squeeze one through. Loacal tourist operator runs them and has made a 4wd park specifically for them because there's no 4wd tracks wide enough to take them. BTW Hummer = Military version, Humvee = civilian version (or maybe that's the other way round :confused: )Quote:
