When you were 18 what was your dream car
As it was the 80's for me was obsessed with anything Ford XR.Would have killed for an XR 3i best I got was mg metro turbo
Still reckon it was best decade for hot hatches.
Cars might be lot quicker now but was so bloody interesting then

My dad had three. And a 928, and a (low end) Ferrari. And a Ford Cortina pick up with a 400bhp V8. And the 7th mk1 GTi in the UK. And and and...
But I always hankered after a 911 - always loved them, always will. By 18 years old, we had moved to Cornwall so cars became less of a priority. It was the early 90s so probably a 993 Turbo.

Wanted an RS1800 but had to settle for an RS2000 in 1982 when I was 20 so didn't do too badly.
