Having drifted in and out of PH for a few years, and particularly enjoyed perusing Readers' Cars threads - 1275GT's Rover SD1, theadman's Facel Vega, and AndrewCrown's Silver Shadow being particular highlights - I thought I'd pop this in as a bit of a curio.I had seen this at an auction a couple of years ago but only got round to buying it last summer. It is, perhaps slightly eccentrically, my only car. I did have other cars, although I've never had anything made after 1995, but I don't need a daily driver and I found running even a small "fleet" too much of a faff to be enjoyable. So, I have

rallycross said: Thats wild having a 400 as your only car! What will you do the 6m of the year when its broken?! (only kidding).Could you share what its like to drive??I tried to buy on of these in 95' from a chap in Fulham who had left it to decay for years but was not open to low offers, I fancied a V12 at the time ended up in a XJS. In a nutshell, it's fairly ponderous until about 4000rpm, then the acceleration from about 70mph to well north of 100mph is absolutely seamless and just phenomenal for a car of its age. It's loud inside and out compared to the XJS, but at motorway cruising spee

Toyota MR2 Roadster by Lewis Craik, on FlickrThis is my MR2 Roadster – it was bought to replace my mk3.5 MX-5, which is about to come to the end of its lease. The MX-5 has been a great car, far better than my old mk1 MX-5, so the MR2 has got a tough act to follow.This time, because I knew that the MX-5 would be going back to the lease company at the end of August, I had plenty of time to save for a new car and to decide what to get. Earlier this year I bought a house walking distance from my office, meaning that my next car could be a fun car for weekend hooning and the odd trackday. An MR2

I bought my green Roadster in May 2016 for £922 (Ebay), and I quickly sold the hardtop for £350.I bought my yellow Roadster in February 2025, for £2,200.In the adverts it only showeed it with the hood down and cloth seats.When I went to collect it (another Ebay purchase) it had leather seats and a hardtop.I got home and looked up the hardtops on Ebay and couldn't quite believe it!Now I'm not sure whether to hang on to it, it's a nice thing to have and a nice thing to keep with the car, or have myself an almost half price car!

I thought I should now start a Reader's Cars for my Z4 even though I've had it 8 months now. Short version of a very long story. I got ripped off by a classic car specialist who I bought a Porsche 924 from. There had been a long drawn out legal battle but eventually at the end of April 25 after just shy of 2 years I was paid out and the 924 collected and returned to the seller. A couple of friends have Z4 (one a 3.0 and one a 2.2) both roadsters and have been really enjoying them. I'd always had a preference for the Z4 coupe over the roadster and had a few saved searches in Autotrader, Marketp

thanks, some great adviceinteresting, I knew it was long service intervals (this had a 15k and 20k interval before it needed a new motor) and the cold start etc but I hadn't realised it was oil dilution as well. So diluted oil that's 2 years and 20k old isn't going to do anyone favours. I've already had one big white puff of smoke which forums assure me is normal flat 6 behaviour and was after i moved it twice to get access to doors for stereo work, so engine was only on a few seconds. Otherwise all starts are fine and I'm quietly confident this 40k motor is finewill look at gundo etc in du

danb79 said: Wow; superb save on the undertrays/arch liners... Is it plastic or aluminium you've used?Thin (1.5mm) sheets of ABS. Heated and folded for the lip/edge and then lashings on epoxy glue and small rivets to hold it all together while it set up. They are far from perfect, but at £200 each for second hand ones that are usually damaged I'm happy enough with the result.

It has been a while. My last thread here was my Boxster, Jan 2023. I've been on dad duties since then and tbh the Boxster did me so dirty it more or less put me off toy cars for quite some time. 3 years, 4 months and 30 days to be exact at time of writing this. So why the change of heart? Bit of a long story to a question no one was actually asking but I found myself missing something to have a play around with on weekends and faff about with through the summer. The MO was not to spend too much and to find something fun. This Mini ticks both of those boxes. I've been looking for the past 2 we
