Having seen a couple of them in the flesh, I can see why various owners were dissapointed with the fittings - as many were simply sourced from a variety of diffirent manufacturer's mass production parts bins!
Still - you don't see many (any?) actually on the road - and to own one would be a VERY special experience I'm sure.
As to what I'd have, given the choice of ANYTHING (and I'll keep doing that Euromillions when it's a huge roll-over just in case!)... probably a "Pagani Zonda Roadster F"...

Either a 355GTS, a 308GTS or a 360 Modena, or 430 Stradale
Anyone of theose will do if someone was to give me one.

An interesting choice... They were quite an achievement when they first appeared, especially the prototype - with 4 wheel drive, a big V12 and very novel scissor doors, but the production units lost all of those... ending up with rear-wheel drive and a turbo'd V6 (producing more power than the V12, but with quite a bit of lag by all accounts, and not quite the same noise).

F40. Just love the whole concept of no creature comforts, it was the most focussed car of its day. Window winders, turbo lag-a-go-go, bloody bathroom sealant holding the carbon fibres together, all makes it the most frightening package of its day.
