Suggestions for classic car for epic road trip to Hell

[Cathbad]

you'd get a right brick on.

When I get a moment, I'll look up the meaning of this.

If it were me I'd be going for the full on Jag 420g, complete with Ray Winstone in the back seat concealing a sawn-off shooter in his Crombie. Pint of mild in the drinks holder. Be honest, if you saw that in your rear view you'd get a right brick on.

Cool car !

@millymollymo I've figured out where my little kitsune's big brother got his car from... and the history of the car has resulted in a high-speed chase down a terrifying stretch of highway (they took a supposed shortcut) thanks to a case of mistaken identity

And I still haven't figured out what car they are driving yet - so many classic cars to choose from (based on this whole forum thread)!

I was going to say old school mini. My brother has one, has had it since he was 16 and is obsessed with it (and he's a super car nerd).

I almost bought an MG Midget once. But I couldn't actually get to grips with the weird gears.

I am thinking something about like this...

With flame paint like this...

 

[WarriorMouse]

Since I still have not figured out linking photo's. And looking back at Blue Stockings last post.I'm thinking small classic sportscars. Might I suggest a few possibilities.

Sunbeam Tiger
Shelby 289 Cobra
Triumph TR6
Datson 240Z

Some lesser known but still possible.
Daimler SP250
BMW 507
AC Aceca
Diva GT Le Mans
Lotus Europa Twin Cam
Lotus 7
Toyota 2000GT
Ginetta G3

Ive always wanted that car too.

They just don't make cars like that anymore. I find the modern Corvelttes to be lacking by comparison.

@HareBrain Is this the car you were telling me about? If it's the version with the cover, the my little kitsune will be able to hop on top of it to hurl distraction spells at the hapless exorcists pursing them as her water elemental partner drives like a maniac.

Yes, I saw a red version of the soft-top one in real life. Either soft-top or hard-top is lovely.

Nothing wrong with a big Capri mate, I had one thirty or so years ago

Bodie's Ford Capri from The Professionals sells for £55,000

Michiko would accidentally punch a hole in the roof and fall over if she was dancing on the soft top while hurling spells to the beat of "Footloose". So it would probably have to be the hard-top...

Oh, I like the Capri!

There is only one car to take you anywhere.

Though the driver might not go south of the river Styx late at night. However if you are expecting trouble then this is your car.

The Landrover Wolf for those difficult commutes.
