Oh I forgot the A9X, how could I? Also the VC HDT Commodore is now eligible, at 22 years of age, so I'll have one of them too. What about all the other models of GT Falcon, throw them in too.

Hmmm, where to start?

All of the above?- no, too easy.
As far as ordinary road cars go, I've become quite fond of mk1 and 2 Granadas and assorted other old Fords but I also have a soft spot for Triumph sports cars as well as Dolomites. Also, old (Series 1 and 2) Landrovers, having had a brief fling with a 1965 series 2A. Then there's the classic kits from Rochdale, Fairthorp etc as well as the wierd creations from the 70's which never quite made it.

Mark Haynes has one in his motor museum at Sparkford, just outside Yovil England, but probably a bit far for a day trip, come and see us in the old country sometime.
