Your favourite toy / project car

Recommended Posts

Bought a 2000 Audi S4 Avant off a mate of mine, The old B5 with the 2.7 Bi Turbo lump. Absolutely loved it, back to basics old school car built at a time before the accounts were in control. 

I fancy a nice original Mk1 TT 225, I think they are a design classic. Modern cars do nothing for me.... That said I do like the new E Class coupe!

Quite boring really, it turned out that BCA shouldn’t have sold it as it was the intellectual property of Mr Kipling. 

I didn’t have to sell it back to BCA, however I do get on well with Bedford and didn’t wish to fall out with them. 

 

Looking back i should have made Mr Kipling sweat it out for a little while first.

I know that I am interested in buying a large car for my family with great safety features. I put an eye on Hyundai Creta because of its stylish design and six airbags!!! The only problem is that the price is higher than I expected to spend but I think that this car worth it.
