Maybe...... but my main goal was always to own a V8, got the soarer, and feck me every car lover needs a v8 at some point, and it's cheaper than you think

 

[Nicky]

Do a 20 second mile is 1 that I've wanted to do for quite a while. I've done it before, but never in something I own, so that's up there among the top few car related goals I would have.

Another is to have a either the 2.5TDS engine pushing 300bhp with a huge turbo and pump, or else remove the engine and aim for 400bhp from a 3ltr turbo diesel Mercedes engine in a car that weighs 1 ton...

 

[natogreen16v]

Pretty simply for me
1. Finish my Polo

[collyirwin11]

1. Take part in a motor race of any description (or become a race driver as a career and travel the world doing something i love)
2. Do a full trackday in an ex-btcc laguna or v6 mondeo (alain menu era)
3. Drive round monaco (formula 1 circuit) and the do a nurburg run with friends
4. Take a few months off work and drive the roads from top gear
5. Drive an aventador and make it shoot blue flames haha.
6. Drive an f40!!

Some of them are achievable, others are literally going to require miracles, but a boy can dream.

 

[surprising_skoda]

This is fun reading.

I've been off-road, I've done the V6, V8, V12 (need a V10 yet), I've cracked a ton in a car and on a bike, I own a limo, a bike (or 3), a pickup (or 3!), an American V8, I've had a convertible, I've had (still have) and Alfa (or 6!)

I'm left with
1. Want to own my own tractor. preferably a 135.
2. I want to race a season in the BTCC. I'm too old to get into F1 now but BTCC drivers can be in their 40s so time enough. I will settle for owning a team if I'm not fast enough.
3. Drive around the US in one of my American bucket list cars (78 Coupe De Ville, 84 Camaro, or 70 442)
4. Actually finish, really finish until its actually done, one of my project cars. I am sick of being that guy that never finishes anything.


5. Get my invincibility back so I'm not such a pansy on a bike. I went faster on my 125 when I was 18.

Good thread. I have a few car related goals, number 1 & 2 are what I've had in my head ever since I was a kid and haven't changed.

1. My #1 car goal is to own a Ferrari. I'd love a 355 or 360CS to start with, of course an F40 is top of the list followed by an Enzo, 458 & a 599 but i'll start low and work up.
2. After I get my Ferrari, my #2 goal is to own a McLaren F1, when and if that time comes- I'll happily blow all my retirement money on one.
3. Since the Nurburgring is out of my reach now, I'd love to do a track day at Laguna Seca in something like a GT3 RS.
4. Design myself & build a mid mounted Honda Type R engined kit car.
5. Drive an F1 car from any era.

Even though I have a plan, I'm not sure if I will ever reach #2 depending on what life throws at me along the way, its a dream for sure and my ultimate car goal to own stirling moss' green Ferrari 250 GTO is definitely a mere pipe dream

 

[Cartunes]

Keep it between the hedges.

 

[Tinners]

1 - Own a 300zx Twin Turbo
2 - Own a Stagea
3 - Own a Jaguar Xj220
4 - Nurburgring
5 - Go to Japan and visit all the Tuning shops (HKS, RWB, etc)

 

[DavyH]

Get a drive in an R32 or the new Golf R. Some chance. I'd be happy with that.

My dream car always was, and still is, an Audi RS4.

One day she will be mine- oh yes, she will be mine!
