My auntie had a Metro "GTA", reg F40 NMF, spotted an F40 at Oulton Park sporting the very same registration, so at least the Metro proved useful for something.

Its was actually quite a fun little car in its day....

A Carrera GT pips it for me but an F40 is close behind (with Macca F1 and Koeniggsegg between them).

time for some quiet, alone time in the toilet,,, pmsl.

i love that sort of supercar, f40, xj220, mc f1 aww there the ultimate.

i wish top gear had put the lm version of the f1 up against the veyron, i think it would have been a different story at the end.

^^ F1 did well for such an old car though! Took a bit if time for lardy Veyron to catch up ...

Is it true that the Veyron will beat the F1 to 200mph even if it's at rest whilst the F1 goes past at 100mph

288 Gto for me please.
Love the brutality of the F40 but the 288Gto is 90% as quick and ten times more beautiful!
