Understandable, I've been having a mini nerdgasm. My dad is looking into buying a sports car from a top class car maker, but an older 90s one, not brand new ones which I believe start at about 300000 pounds. This was a surprise to me as for a long time his favourite car has been another sports car from a top class car maker.

The 90's? Pshhhh my sports car is from the 80's. Okay it's not a Ferrari but I'm not even mad. :)

I can borrow my aunt's Corvette any time I want and it's also from the 80's. Still not Ferrari but not mad. ;D

So, an update. My dad passed on the Ferrari. He went for this instead.

Good alternative, I would say. He's looking into flux capacitors, but new ones are over $1000 AUD shipped here.

Did he seriously get a DeLorean? That is far cooler than a Ferrari.

Hell yes he did. About $35000 USD, which, as a random price comparison is the same price as a Mustang EcoBoost Premium convertible in the US. He was super lucky to get it, there was a person in his small town advertising it in their front yard. I haven't actually seen it in person yet, since he's 3 hours away.
I agree, much cooler than a Ferrari. He is actually only a recent fan of back to the future, he first saw it when I showed him the bluray collection.

Another Golf for me, 1.9 Tdi this time, 130bhp, it's a fun little thing, and I think I may end up killing myself in it if I'm not careful...

100mph down the back lanes, and our roads aren't exactly big.

To be fair, if you wanted to bring your muscle car to our roads and drive it at the speeds you're used to, you'll soon be acquainted with a large tree many hundreds of years older than you.
