Your Favourite Car Ever!

Well as the title says it all, which is your favourite car of all time and why?

For me it can only be the Mercedes-Benz 300SL. Without a doubt, the most sexiest car ever made, pure class and brilliance from Germany. A 3.0 liter straight-6 and was the first ever with a Fuel Injected engine! In my opinion, this car made Mercedes Benz a house hold name all around the world. What really capped the whole thing off was the awesome Gullwing doors, so cool.

The only other car that makes me wet myself is the Bugatti Veyron, nothing like it and there won't be anything like it again!

Ultima GTR720
Driven by Ultima Director, Richard Marlow, the British built and designed Ultima GTR road car set a new world record time of a staggering 9.4 secs for the 0-100mph-0 sprint. The GTR scorched from 0-60mph in 2.6 secs, 0-100mph in 5.3 secs and braked to zero from 100mph in a mind blowing 3.6 secs, which are all in themselves road car world record times.
The Ultima GTR used for the successful record attempt was the factory’s standard production specification Ultima GTR640 demonstrator, which has recently been upgraded with a 720bhp Chevrolet V8 engine (naturaly aspirated), and hence now known as the Ultima GTR720. The GTR720 was fully road legal, road tyred and equipped with a standard 5 speed G50 transmission and a standard production engine option from Ultima’s official OE engine suppliers American Speed. NO traction control devices or ABS braking aids were used!
