Car Related Goals In Life

[Boydie]

I think mine is realistic enough except maybe 2 and 6 but then again, if I get to the ring and I am over that direction, I may as well take a large detour lol

 

[Nazor]

be able to have a nice daily, keep it in reasonable condition and afford to have it on the road every day.

realistic enough ?

boring auld c-unit. away to the caravan with your pipe and slippers!

I have done most of what i wanted off my car bucket list.

track days ticked
hill climbs ticked
auto tests ticked
rallying ticked

all thats left which wont happen as i could never afford it would be to own a classic mini

 

[Nazor]

Snooze-a-reeno

 

[IL]

Fill my garage with projects and rear the next generation to mechanic and race like I was.

I'd be devastated if my little lad in the future had no interest.

Getting a 10stone pair

 

[mthompo]

mine are:

1. midget turned into alantis replica
2. get a mk2 escort (nearly there a couple of times)
3. civic cup car so i can do some racing instead of just hills and sprints
4. decent runabout
5. classic mini (had one before i turned 17 but never got to drive it so an itch that has to be scratched)

they are my realistic goals plenty more that wont happen due to the family robbing me of my money

 

[Woodcutter]

To buy a race car and go racing.

After that, I think road cars would take a back seat.

 

[tbdevpaul]

Get my two jeeps through their next MOT

 

[PeteM]

911 (993) for me

Triple garage too

There is nothing quite like being in a competition car.

Who would you get to drive it Woodcutter ?

 

[pablo]

build a bike engined kitcar with the nipper. Might take a few years but would be bonding lol.

otherwise not much. the kitcar would tick the thrills box so just having a nice daily would be sufficient. RS6 for example

 

[pablo]

Fill my garage with projects

surely that box is ticked lol!!

 

[IL]

surely that box is ticked lol!!

Well I did mean completed projects, there is a room for another 2 yet!

1st and foremost on my list is to finish the M3 and get it out for a few track days etc.

Theres a few cars I would like to own but I'm happy with my lot atm.

I would like to prep a car for concours competition at some stage but I think I'll leave that until my hair goes completely grey. Alhtought that looks like it will be sooner rather than later.

I would love to do a trip over to Southern California for Monterey Car week. (Go and chase a few cars Wayne Carini style )

 

[Paul RS]

Have a nice double garage
Finish the Sapphire
Buy another RS 2000 and build it into a B road weapon.

 

[Jason]

In no particular order

1 Do the ring in something fun (m3/m5 esque)
2 Build a large fully equiped workshop
3 Own a 911 Turbo
4 Own a e92 M3
5 Drive more supercars (was hooked after driving a 458 on a track!)
6 Start to sell more cars

All achievable in due course!

[PhilM]

im pretty short sighted.

[johnb740]

Drive something relatively quick round Spa (better than the Nurburgring)

Spa gets a big

But it is just down the road from the Ring so you can easily do both on the same trip.

 

[johna3]

1. Own a B7 RS4 avant in sprint blue as a daily
2. Nut and bolt rebuild on a defender 90. Full offroad kit but keep it road legal
3. Complete a 1.8T transplant into a big bumper mk2 golf gti with the intent of getting 250-300bhp through the front wheels
4. Drive a rally stage in a mk2 escort
5. Build a garage / warehouse with inspection pit, lift, spray booth, the whole heap!

All to be achieved by the age of 40.... Then I'll move on to boats, helicopters and Cohibas!!

Not that interested in super cars to be honest, I'll stick with the cars I consider to be fun to drive!
