E30 M3 not as quick a Cosworth Sierra but had touring car geometry, proper drivers car. Drove loads of mk1 & mk2 RS Escorts in the 80s and 90s still amazed at how fast you could corner ie a standard A road in to a B road 90 degree bend could be taken at 40 mph would not attempt this in my Subaru. Maybe older and wiser

I'm going to have to be a bit of a fanboy here and say the 22b. Far more money than I'd want to spend on a 20 year old impreza but I'd definitely have one in my ultimate fantasy garage.

Escort cosworth for me.
Always promised myself one and never got round to owning one despite having the chance a few times. Now its got to the point where I just can't justify the price tag a decent one goes for to be used as a toy.

Oh and another MG Metro Turbo all colour coded white with red seat belts just like the one I had when I was 21! Great days living at home and loads of disposable income, those were the days. I even slept in it one night in Rhyl! Loved that car saying that I think it helped me pull my first wife and she was a fooking nightmare!!!!!!!!

Yea that's why I didn't get one, was told by a few people they were unreliable.
But saying that my mate had one and he had no problems but that was before I knew him, said just needed to make sure fans working ok. My fav colour was gun metal grey mmmmm

I owned a 5 turbo spent more time in a garage being fixed than it did on the road and the wife hated it so like any other married man I kept it as long as I could just to wind her up lol. I'm with you on a couple, Nova gsi or GTE, Astra 16v GTE, Nissan pulsar GTR, Vauxhall Carlton gsi 3000, Ford escort Cosworth.
