If you had a choice of any F1 car to own and compete in (with the exception of post 2006 say) what would it be?

In Euroboss?
Masters Gp?

Its harder than you think to pick one.
Mine i think would be a Brabham BT42 or 44 or 52....just cant make up my mind.

What would you choose?

Definately a FW07, an early one with the flat sided sidepods and the two piece front wings.
Mind you, Lotus 79's are nice.

Blimey.

Lotus 79. Jordan 191. Williams FW14B. McLaren MP4/4. Lotus 49. Any late-turbo-era front runner on qualifying tyres and 1500hp.

Any of them please. In original liveries too please.

I like your list Tristan, would add a couple more - Lotus 72, McLaren M23 and going back earlier, Maserati 250F. But if I have to take only one, given that I have the Anson it would have to be the Jordan 191.....

Yes, what Peter said too.

When can we expect delivery Lee?

Jordan 191 takes some beating. But what about McLaren MP4/8 or Ferrari 641?

If only it was that simple. Then why would we stop at cars?.......Hope my wife doesn't read this :?

Some great choices made but mine must have a DFV. I'd want a car that would finish. I ruled out a Lotus 49B, As nice as they are I am quite fond of my legs

1967 Eagle Westlake, quite the most beautiful car I have ever seen. I think it even won a Grand Prix once-Spa 1967 Dan Gurney. Correct me if I'm wrong. I saw one once in the metal at Silverstone, even better than in the photos..

Cooor, Proper engineering!
Imagine sitting behind that on the grid, you would be psyched out before it started!

Don't know the number Lotus but the one Senna and De Angeliese drove in 1986!
Or the lotus 49
Or a type 35 Buggati but that's well old
