not [b]your[/b] perfect car............................. but [b]the[/b] perfect car, the one that fulfills all criteria

name it

Is it a Toyota?

Skyline R34 GT-R Vspec II Bayside Blue

The one on the telly made of cake. UUUUMMMMMM CAKE!!!!!!!

Has to be the bugatti veyreon.............With whats his name from top gear - James mayall is it.
He thought the car was stopped at 70Km/h and wanted to get out.
Its sooooooo smooth (and perfect) Clarkson called it "a engineering feat"

That car Homer simpson made....

not sure it would be very good of the plate, and people would keep eating your car

[quote]Skyline R34 GT-R Vspec II Bayside Blue[/quote]

not bad, fills a few criteria, would imagine running and maintenance costs would be high

[quote]Has to be the bugatti veyreon.[/quote]

not the ideal shopping car, can it go off road ? a tad expensive and can you get a couple of kids in it ?

[quote]That car Homer simpson made[/quote]

perfect, if only he would make it commercially available


remember its[b] the[/b] perfect car not [b]your [/b]perfect car

Jeremy Clarkson came up with a Subaru Forester !!

reliable, affordable, good loadspace, powerful, off road capabilities .......

Doesn't make it perfect though does it? You could say the same about the Range Rover Sport...if you had deeper pockets and a differing view on reliability . It's going to be a compromise whatever, as there's too many variables.

thats the idea
everyone will have different opinions, a vehicle may fill most or all criteria but obviously everyone will hold the criteria in different levels

toyota alphard - cant be any better as a 7/8 seater family car, everything include the door and massive back door are open and closed automatically.

Surely "perfection" is personally subjective so it will mean different things to different people?

A DB9 Volante would be perfect for me right now

This week my perfect car is the SC430, a few weeks ago it was the IS250. And the other day I was thinking of the new LS600h... it changes all the time.

try and look at the perfect all round car not what you would want personally

not a bad choice, fills a lot of the criteria

toyota landcruiser amazon. Loads of room, lots of seats, good cruiser, off road no problem and can pull a trailer. 3.0 diesel of course

To have the perfect you'd have to use parts from other cars e.g. Space of a people carrier, engine of a sports car, looks of a supercar, handling of a track car, reliability of a lexus , running costs of a Smart car and the price of a push bike!

Like I said the SC430 is the perfect all round car - and it goes off road. I live on a farm and mine goes off road every day!

Ferrari Scaglietti (sounds like an expensive Pasta Dish)

i had to be crawly but I gotta say of all the cars I have driven, the IS is closest to perfection. (Mind you my list of cars is pretty crappy tbh)

Last time we had this concept on here, I said the Citroen Mehari, but it had to be kept in a garage in house looking out over the Mediterranean!
Holds 4, can carry stuff, is cheap to run,looks quirky, goes anywhere.....
Check out Google Images as I can't upload one here!
Otherwise, Subaru Forester XT

I can see why it needs to be kept in a garage - where are the doors and windows??

the Landcruiser ticks a lot of boxes
this looks like a very good candidate ....even beating the citreon mahari on load capability, security and towing capability,

Got to be the volvo v70 T5R estate for me ,reliable ,fast,safe,comfortable,loads of space for shoipping etc.

Too many ways of looking at this to make sense - the forester and alphard might be fine in the circumstances described but I wouldn't want to pull up to a posh central london hotel in one

I'm thinking S65 AMG

Just need the roof to prevent sun-tan overload! No doors etc for the breeze in the Andalucian summer!
May be back there in a few months, (but will take the air-conned LS400!!)

i'd say the Audi RS4 Avant..

Okay, doesnt quite have the 'off road' of the forester - BUT, how often do you need it? It has 4WD for all weather. 440bhp for sportiness. Estate for load lugging/families..

Freelander 2 awsome car.

Having had 2 of the 3 listed, around town they are no worse than a V8.

In town they auto switch to 6 cylinders ....clever Germans
