Jaguar MKII / "S" type 3.8 litre straight six front engine rear wheel drive This car is original with a wonderful patina and smell that only Sixties cars have. This car is finished in a Gunmetal silver with a light blue leather interior and wooden dash. This car was built in 1966 and has independent rear suspension which makes it very comfortable and disc brakes all round which is very advanced for the day. The boot is capable of holding four peoples' luggage and the car is able to carry four adults in comfort on long journeys. A superior alternative to the Mk II Jaguar. MGB roadster 1.8 litre straight four front engine rear wheel drive This car is finished in red, with a black interior, dark walnut dashboard and a moto-lita wooden steering wheel. The car is also fitted with wire wheels with chrome spinners and overdrive. This car is in in its element on 'B' class roads with the hood down where the car communicates with you as it negotiates bumps and bends. This is driving as it used to be, an involving and enjoyable experience. Triumph TR6 2.5 litre straight six front engine rear wheel drive The last of the 'hairy chested' sports cars, with a 2.5 litre straight six giving good acceleration and with masses of torque means you can minimise the gear changes and go for the lazy option. This car is red with a black interior and leather steering wheel. A car that will definitely put a smile on your face and just listen to that exhaust note. Porsche 911 2.7 litre flat six rear engine rear wheel drive The ultimate icon of the car world, revered and desired for the last thirty years. Slide behind the wheel, start the engine and it won't take long to see why the 911 has been admired by drivers for so long - a sheer delight! Renowned for its technical design and engineering brilliance giving the car an extremely good record in the reliability stakes as far as performance cars were concerned.

TVR "S" 2.9 litre "vee" six front engine rear drive The TVR Marque has been around for a long time and is now in ascendency with the likes of the Griffith. The 3000S was their first production convertible with more pleasing lines than its coupe brother the 3000M. The S is powered by a V6 although some time later a V8 was introduced. The formula of light fibreglass on a steel chassis with a powerful engine has not changed in essence, though more parts are now produced in-house. MGF 1.8 litre straight four mid engine rear wheel drive The MGF is somewhat of a departure for MG in terms of engine layout but follows their philosophy of designing a practical car with touring in mind rather than an out and out sports car. Still good fun and brings the MGB into the twentieth century. Lotus Elise 1.8 litre straight four mid engine rear wheel drive As you would expect from Lotus, this is a no compromise, no frills sports car which sets the standard for performance and handling. A blend of style and innovation which have kept Lotus at the forefront of producing desirable cars.
