Well I counter your E28 & Muira with 2 Alfa GTV's and no less than 3 SWB Quattro Sports :D
 
I counter with a Mk1 Lotus Cortina :P
 
If it's so common you can sell me yours for cheap...

:P

Your eyes are a lot better than mine... took me a while to find that (with the bonnet up).

I think I can counter that with what appears to be an EB110 (6th car down, middle row)

Edit...

Did a bit of digging and found more info on the place

Instant trip booked when my Euromillions number come up :D

How about an Alpine, Muira, 037, Alfa GTV and a Lotus Cortina...

Oh gawd, I think I might have just had a minor heart attack. Look at that place!
 
Dat garage! The EB110 appears to be a SS too! Not sure if worth posting but there is a CLK63 Black for sale on the local Craigslist. Only one of 44 that made it to America!

I must stay away from this place if I ever hit it big on the lottery, I'd walk in a very rich man, and walk out having spent everything on the entire collection. At least I'd have a ton of awesome cars!
 
Slotty -> I'd take the following:

- Lancia 037
- Buggatti EB110 SS
- Audi ur-quattro Sport
- Lancia Delta HF Integrale
- Porsche 997 GT2 RS

^ So much win in one pic! :drool:
 
Since no one has driven that McLaren after all this time, would that mean the engine is ruined? Or does that only apply to cars that have miles on them that have sat for a long time? I don't understand why someone would buy a car like that and just let it sit.

Edit: Here's one.

1954 Ferrari 750 Monza $3,650,000/£2,389,173

1960 Edsel Ranger 1 of 1. I just went there a few weeks ago, it's about 20 miles south of where I live. Some nice cars there!

1957 Ford Fairlane F Code Skyliner Supercharged (1 of less than 20) at the same dealership as the Edsel. $330,000/£216,007

I read on another forum that McLaren have said it will cost a minimum £100k to get the zero mile F1 roadworthy.
 
sorry don't have pictures, thought it was rude at the time but,

there is a white FD RX-7 lhd with only 3,000 km on the clock basicly still in break in period, still in factory tires. was in ac garage. now sitting in the sun new owner wants to sell it for about 25k in US$

was going there expecting 15k$ tops
 
I'm a bit under-educated on Japanese cars, so maybe you can explain why an Acura Integra is a"Rare Sale".

They were made in fairly limited numbers. 3800 total sent to America. Certainly a lot more rare than other cars that have been mentioned in this thread! (I'm looking at you 8 series BMW.)
 
My point in posting that listing was to add a pretty realistic rare-ish car that a member may very well be interested in buying. Obviously it's not one of the one-offs that fill this thread but if someone was in the market for an iconic Japanese sports car, there you go; arguably the greatest FWD ever produced.
 
How does that McLaren exist? After all this time, no one drove it even a little? Japan has all the cool stuff.

It's not really 0 miles. Before each F1 left the factory, it did have around 100 miles put on it through testing & this particular example has been back to the factory every few years for service, the last in 2010. After each service, a tech. does drive the car, so this example actually has somewhere near 200 miles.

It was never driven out on the street, but it was stored in a climate-controlled facility & started up every couple weeks.

And it won't cost a minimum 100,000 pounds to get running because it already does run. As long as the tires, brakes & fuel system are ok, the car should be ready to go. If the fuel bladder hasn't been changed, then the engine will probably need to be removed & for that alone, it's $30-40,000.

Expected price is around $10,000,000, give or take.
