bx replacement-s
Every car that I can remember owning. Looking at them, and recalling driving them, I have to admit the 520i was by far and away the best. I missed out a Saab and another 2cv and a Renault 5 too... but the 520i was amazing!

EDIT 1+2: I should mention these aren't the actual cars - but as near as I could find around the net. Missed out a tzd too

Coming late to this thread but there are some lovely cars there. The Lancia Fulvia - haven't seen one of those in years but they were lovely things, especially the Mk1s with aluminium panels. A scary number of the ones on Scarecrow's list have also passed through my hands at one time or another. I'm another Citroëniste who's always had a soft spot for Saabs as well.
To the original question, I really like the look of the new Fiat 500s - best of the modern minis IMHO. An original 500 is on my wishlist – I'll go to Italy and buy one one day and drive it home. My best mate had one when we were 17. He passed his test a few weeks before me, and two hours later we were going down the biggest hill in Essex (not that big in real terms, I'll admit) flat out, with me steering and operating the hand throttle from the passenger seat, and him sitting on the back of the driver's seat with his head out of the sunroof, trying to fix the wiring to the radio...
Others on the wishlist include a S3 Landrover pickup (hopefully arriving in the next few weeks), a 1955 Traction Avant in midnight blue (sadly not likely to be arriving any time soon).
