I'll start us off. Although I'm a non-driver, I do know a gorgeous piece of machinery when I see one. I'm just watching Richard Hammond take this stunning piece of kit around the Yas Marina on Top Gear, it's the Porsche 918 Spyder hybrid sportscar. f**k, they don't even make women this beautiful:  |

Aston Martin DB5 or DB7. A former boss used to own the latter, and struck a deal with me that I could borrow it for our wedding if I brought in a set figure in fees in the year beforehand. Inevitably, I hit the target and he backtracked on the deal and wouldn't let me have it.
I can't upload pics at the moment as I'm on my phone but will get on to it later!

Lime green Citreon Saxo. Thing of beauty!
In all seriousness my grandad used to own a Pontiac Firebird, from America it was a left hand drive! Beautiful car.

I've tried three times but between this place, photobucket and google images I give up. Allow me, matey: First, we have the 1964 silver birch Aston Martin DB5 accompanied by the utterly brilliant current 007, Daniel Craig:  This is the first car I'd buy if I won the lottery, I have loved it ever since I first saw it on Goldfinger as a kid, and it just gets more and more fabulous with every year that passes. And here is the more modern Aston Martin DB7, also in silver:  |

THANK YOU!
The latter looks exactly like the beautiful machine I SHOULD have driven to our wedding. The swine. Never trust a lawyer.
I'd also like to add the E-Type Jag!

If you want a beautiful Aston - all Astons are beautiful, apart from the rather dodgy 1989 Virage, I give you this. The Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato! Only 19 were built in the 60's. Then what they called sanction II, another 4 in the late 80's/early 90's and finally another 2 sanction III in 1992. More curves than Beyonce's bottom. Strangely you need £1million to get one. I wonder why?   |

I'd also like to add the E-Type Jag! Beautiful car!  Not sure what those front bumper things are about though, I've never seen them before |

Stunning Offy, but the DB7 is the best looking car ever made for me!

I give up. Nothing is letting me upload photos tonight so I'll just name nice ones and let someone else have a go! The AC Shelby Cobra.  |
