This one isn’t mine, (no photos have survived), but this is what I used to own (same colour).
Last 5 times it sold, it went up in price.

This is a link to Dad’s '66 VW Type 3 Fastback. I’m a bit biased with my love affair with this one, was brought home from the hospital 31years ago in this, and its always been in the family. Unique…to me definitely !

Link to my brother’s 64 panel splitty - now with more rat, mud tyres and bleeding eyes. He lived in it for while, hence the number plate.

Myself and my old man bought our green split for 13k, we’ve (more he than we) spent 8k on it, and he had a serious offer of 33k down at long reef two weeks ago by a old bloke driving a beetle?!

i inherited a love of porsche’s from my dad. the old sports cars from the 50s/60s/70s are just amazing. especially the 906:
one of the very last proper racing cars that you could still register for street driving.

Yep. I hadn’t been keeping up with the news from the wife. Apparently it’s all over because GM wouldn’t release the Saab Automotive name to the Chinese. They were happy to take the money for the plant and design.
Turns out this is what Saab wanted since they own the name and don’t want it going to Asia. GM only had the ‘right to use’ the name to build cars and never owned it. With all the problems the car company has had it was unlikely Saab was going to renew that right when it came up again.

The 205 GTI was an awesome car but it’s now 2012 and I’m waiting to see this.
