i know your old and blind trevor but the xj220 is alot of things but ugly it isn't.

turbo V6 made up for lack of v12 power, alot lighter. A great car that came about at a bad time in the end.

:D You're catching me up!!!

No supercar should have a wheezy old six. Needs at least 8 bangers if not 12.

From the rear it looks like it's from some jank 60's puppet show like Captain Scarlet!

Come on Helmet!!!

If I had to suffer a lack of cylinders in my expensive toy it's have to be one of these. no supercar but has to be one of the prettiest things ever:

People diss the 308 and 328 yet to me they are very similar to the 288:

I'd have one.

All went wrong with the 348 for me.

308 GTSs are lovely cars and my favourite Ferrari. I'd have one, I'd grow a 'tasche, sport a Hawaiian shirt and pretend I'm magnum PI :D

a mate of mine looks after an 85 GTS and now also a 430 spider. The 308 makes me moist. the 430 leaves me a bit cold TBH.

Christ you're old. Not even Malcolm would consider that to be recent. That'd buy you less than 10% of one.

Lol :-)

McLaren F1 looks beautiful to me and i am sure to many many others.....

In terms of Ferraris the one Ferrari i always liked is the Ferrari F355 in terms of looks it just looks so well proportioned (even though M3s will now give it a good hiding and the F355 interior is just awful)
Looks great in Rosso Red and Cream LEather
I reckon if u got a Manual one now gonna be a proper keeper in years t come ................

I quite like the look of the 959 / 993 Turbo S / M3 CSL (if that counts?) / 575 Marenello (proper man's car that) / 599 / 996 Turbo S (just think its a good looking car even though 996 interior is poor i think) / F430 Scuderia if i had the money / Lotus Espirit (one of the last of the line ones looks great) / Maserati Gran Sport Coupe one of the 2008 last of the line ones if that even counts / 997 Carrera 2 GTS Coupe if that counts?
