I must say that Lada is tempting Joop, but I have always secretly desired a rip around in a Pontiac Firenza.....if I could find one that wasn't on fire.

You mean a Pontiac Fiero, Jack? Firenza was an Oldsmobile model.
I always fancied driving a Messerschmitt KR200. Unusual seating and certainly not the best place to be on a hot sunny day. If you got sunstroke, you could almost believe that you were in a dogfight with a Hawker Hurricane in a Messerschmitt Bf109.
Yes I believe it was originally a Vauxhall, but just in Europe. It was a standing joke in my neck of the woods because they regularly caught fire....the name coincidentally given it was perfect of course. Lol.
@jkuvakas John; I always thought the Lotus Europa was a horrible looking excuse for a sports car...just awful styling. A high school chum of mine had a red one he thought was pretty cool but not for long as it caught fire parked in his garage overnight (Lucas wiring??....not sure) and that was the end of it.
I already did...in 1987 I took a Yugo GV for a test drive...I’m so glad you asked this question during this therapy session! I feel so much better now that this weight has been lifted from my shoulders, I’ve struggled so long...
