What are your top 5 cars?

One for the petrol heads...If money was no object, what top 5 cars would you have parked in your garage???
Mine are as follows:

1. 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500
2. Series 1 Escort RS Turbo
3. Mitsubishi Evolution VI Tommi Makkinenn special edition
4. Ferrari F40
5. Porsche 911 GT3 RS

is 2 escort cosworth? if so i still love that car !!!!!!! i have dream about it ever night i go to bed lmao

No Steve it's the S1 RS, I think they were made before the cossie ('85ish?) and they were all white with blue decals. Hard to find a nice one now though that hasn't been run into the ground

i was brought up with tank like these


and a far other rubbish one

the correct name for them was an RS2000. the RS stood for rally sport or was that the mark 2 escort anyhow what a machine

Steve, we had one of these when I was a kid, and it was beige!!!

heres a pic of my first baby she was a 1.8 16V XRI

RS2000 is a little different to the series 1 turbo, but both fantastic cars, would have either at the drop of a hat
