Not really interested in fast cars at all really but I would love to own an Aston Martin DB5, Jaguar E-Type, Austin Healey 3000, Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta and Alfa Romeo Giulia sprint GTA, loads to name but they are at the top of the list.

Stainless steel costs a lot more and weighs a lot more.

Composite would be cheaper and lighter :P

Yes, but brushed composite just isn't as drool worthy as brushed stainless in the everything has carbon fiber weave modern world :) Though if you were going to stainless something, I think I would take a moke... And not one of the angular SSupermokes A moke pressed to mk1 style ;)

GT40 closely followed by a Healey 100/6. But in the 'may possibly be able to afford one day' category it would be a TR4 (TR5 s are going for stupid money now).

For Healey money or top TR money, you can buy a Mallock GTD40 replica or similar. An old mate who's raced and run the real things, says "don't knock GT40 replicas!" - with the right set up you can get the whole GT40 experience for a fraction of the cost!

Some of them are really nice, there is a place just down the road from me in Minworth that makes them. But at 40k + for a top spec one they will forever be out of my price range unless I win the lottery. Whereas as decent TR4 can be had for 10k, still a lot for a toy but within the realms of reality.

40k? Hardly buys an average '59 Mini these days! :P
