What type of car do you drive?

1. 1990 Jaguar (My latest toy). Wife has a 2005 Zafira (Kid Carrier). 1928 Graham Paige Tourer (If we finally get it going again...) 1929 Graham Paige (Still restoring)

2. A newer Jag, just have to convince the minister of finance

3. The Graham Paige Racing Special my father and I have been designing for the last 10 years. We have got most of the peices together now, we just have to find the time to assemble them, and if money wasnt an object we could really go to town, or a bugatti (Type 35 racer, atlantique, or royale im not fussy)

4. Without a doubt. 1964 MGB roadster. Red with painted wires. Had to sell it due to growing family (This is what the Jag replaced) Miss that thing like nothing else. drove it into work every day (peak hour). Roof only went up if it was actualy raining, even then if I kept if over 75 I could leave the roof down, so I passed many confused people on the freeway, pouring rain and me with the roof down, just had to put it up when I got to the lights at the end. Even took it camping, drove it around tasmania, my left arm hurt after that trip (Slow down, Thump:D). Was even used as the childcare pickup vehicle for my eldest. I wanna nother one:(:(

Back when I used to hang out with Porsche people, I heard tell of a period of foolishness in the 80's when the boys at Hamilton's shoehorned a 1000 hp
Porsche 917 12 cyl into a combi. A couple of months of engineering and fabrication for one bowel-slackening blast down Church St.:eek: :eek: :eek:

There was also a 959 version made in the states, so yes, a 4 X 4 is available.

1275cc standard. Then bored to 1310cc, followed by a cutoff Datsun crank to get the extra stroke.

Top speed somewhere over 130mph (limit of speedo) with the backside skimming white lines - heckuva ride. Oh yeah, nearly forgot, hitting catseyes at that speed with small wheels is more like hitting the whole cat.
