Cars you love but can never own Page 4
I really want a beetle, but the old ones. I could never own it, because I can't stand cars that break down all the time.

Well, if you took the handbrake off once in a while, maybe they'd last longer?*

Just found some pictures. 
Sorry for the huge post.

I would really like a blue cadillac but I'll never have one.... 
F**k me, Nil! You chose the bestest colours! 
They all came in those sorts of colours. I liked them as they were different from the modern stuff.
No, no. They're cool. "Classic" might be the word to use. 
They were.
Not like my Volvo 340
Or my Escort.
I've also had a white Fiesta and an all green Ka, but I can't find pictures of those.
Better than my first cars. Of which there are none. 
I'm proud to say I've bought all my cars myself. No hand outs from my parents as most kids get nowadays.
Let's face it, if my parents had bought me those it would've been pretty obvious they didn't like me much.
I've always wanted and will get one of these
Nice. My mate had one, not in as good condition as that one, and it was one of the scariest rides I've ever had. It's so near to the floor it's like go karting. The hole in his floor that you could see the road through didn't hep. It was like The Flinstones.
It wasn't easy finding the right colours, but here are representations of the 5 cars I've owned.
