Cars you always wanted as a kid

Got to get the Mrs car sorted otherwise i would buy 1.Can you get classic car insurance on them yet?

Edit: Plus i am saving like mad for my supercharger install and her indoors has no idea about that yet,imagine her joy if i bought another car!

Yeah classic insurance is no problems on them. Plenty old enough now and is seen as a proper classic. Insurance isn't too bad for me and I'm still 19.

I'm guessing nice ones are pretty hard to come across these days though.
 
When I was about 12 or 13 I decided I really wanted an Alfasud:

And I still want one to this day

There is a very nice example sitting in AlfaWorkshops at Royston right now.Dont know who owns it as its been there quite a while.
 
I like them because of all the nice race prepped examples I used to see when I went with my dad while he was racing his 75, then his 33. I just think race prepped suds like fantastic. I'd love one on the road, fairly stock though too. If I don't get my arse in gear soon though they'll all have rotted away :D
 
I always wanted a land rover defender 90 as a kid, in black or dark grey and to be honest i would still have one now. Something about them makes them look hardcore. I also wanted a ferrari 250 gto, which i still have a model of in my room:p
 
In no particular order of preference :-

Capri RS2600 (right arm would gladly be donated, could probably also stretch to a love spud too)
Mk.III Cortina 2000E
Manta GTE
Tiger Avenger
Lotus Carlton
E-Type
'64 Ferrari 250 GTO (or LM)
 
I always wanted a De Tomaso Pantera

Never driven one, and I have been told that, at over 6', it's unlikely that I will ever fit well enough to enjoy the experience if I did. I'd like the chance to find out though :D

Another car I've always wanted is the GT40. I *may* consider buying myself a good replica one day :)
 
I just wanted to drive. Really really badly. Soon after I passed my test, I had an obsession with Minis so that became the focus.

Then I drove an e30 M3 and it was all over for me - RWD ftmfw.

I suppose if I had a dream car when I was younger, it was a Porsche 911 or 944 turbo.
