Continued.......you may yawn if you want!
I owned:
Lanchester 10
George and Fred Lanchester, two Cornish brothers, made the first production British car at the end of the 19th C.
Mine was 1934, and had the usual preselector gearbox and fluid flywheel, as does the AEC Routemaster (red London bus!). They amalgamated with Daimler, and ceased in the late 1950s.
Humber Hawk
Luxury car from Rootes Brothers in the 50s/60s
Jaguar Mk VII Big 1956 3.4 litre Jag
5 Austin 7s - 1927-1937
The original "real" small car for the masses
Without them, there would not be: Jaguar, BMW, Nissan, Reliant (shame!) That's another story, though.
I have enjoyed driving:
Bentley 3 litre
Austin Heavy 12 1927
Citroen XM
I would like to drive (to see what the fuss is/was about):
Any new Jaguar
RR Silver Shadow
Lexus (Luxury brand of Toyota)
Two-stroke Trabant.
East German car which had a 3-cylinder 2-stroke engine, and used petroil (oil mixed with petrol) for lubrication. Many Eastern bloc cars were similar.
They had a plastic body and superb build quality, but bore many urban myth jokes.
NSU Prinz
NSU perfected the first rotary engine developed by Felix Wankel, and still used by Mazda. This car was the timeless RO80.
The Prinz was a small car with a twin-cylinder aircooled engine - some versions were highly tuned. VW bought them out.
