Cars of the seventies and eighties that you still like the look of

[Smokin Joe]

Mk1 Cavalier. One of the nicest cars I owned and I think they would still look cool today.

A child of the mid-70s here.

Talbot Sunbeam Lotus
Lancia Stratos

Lotus Esprit Turbo

Yes, I know... There's a preponderance of 1980s cars with a race / rally pedigree in there. But that's what you get when it comes to me LOL!

Porsche 959.

[Drago]

Maserati Bora. Not blisteringly quick, but by God they looked good.

Capri - always going to be my number one

Never liked the Capri. The USA got the Mustang and we got the Capri!

One I do still like is the Datsun 240Z though they did rust badly.

Ferrari Dino 246GT. I used to walk past one in 1976 when I was working in Blackheath. It's the only car I've ever really liked. Back then, it cost an eye-watering £6000.

The Original VW Sirocco mk2 - I really liked it at the time but we never got round to owning one - During the summer months I often pass a house with one parked outside, and I have seen it on the road, sounds lovely with its V6 engine - still looks a nice car, hasn't aged (in its looks, dated) as many others from that period

Bloody lovely, My wife used to have a 1983 1800 Campaign. Between us we have owned 16 Golf’s over the years, most were GTi’s a couple of VR6’s and a Mk 4 V6 4 Motion. First time we have been without a Golf in the family for a very long time.
