Jaguar E-Type: Beauty Defined
We start our journey in the Midlands with the iconic Jaguar E-Type. Revered as one of the most beautiful cars ever made, the E-Type is a testament to timeless design. With its sleek lines and a low-slung silhouette, this classic British beauty continues to captivate car enthusiasts around the world.
Be it an early flat floor car right the way through to the americanised V12 powered series III examples the E-Type remains a firm favourite with collectors, enthusiasts and the average passer by. The E-Type is not just a car; it's a rolling piece of art that transcends eras.
A wide array of examples means there is something for everyone. A little on the taller side? you could look for a 2+2 with a taller roof line, or maybe you want a racier variant? why not look for a semi-lightweight example.
Mercedes-Benz AMG GT-R: Germanic Muscle
With a handcrafted V8 engine and germanic good-looks, this German brute is the automotive manifestation of Thor’s hammer, but with a steering wheel.
Despite the aforementioned brutality, it is still a Mercedes. The three pointed star that adorns its wide mouth front grille stands for a vehicle that is built to an extremely high standard. The GT-R is a track focussed machine that can complete a 7 minute 10 second lap of the Nurburgring Nordschleife.
Aston Martin Vantage V12: The Bond Car That Never Was
So, you want to be James Bond? Join the queue! The on-screen iteration of Bond represents a fierce sense of style and taste, from Cohiba Cigars to Omega watches. Though it does feel as if they missed a trick by never giving Bond the V12 Vantage to drive.
Yes, he ended up in a rather lovely DBS, but the smaller, more petite, more manoeuvrable Vantage didn’t get a shoe in. The V12 Vantage will be a car that goes down in history, something people look back on and say, wait…they put a V12 in the Vantage?!
Ferrari 612 Scaglietti: Italian Flair with Four Seats
For those seeking the marriage of Italian flair and practicality, the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti is a tantalising proposition.
This four-seater grand tourer combines the heart-stopping performance expected from a prancing horse with the convenience of a spacious interior. Powered by a V12 engine, the 612 Scaglietti offers a perfect balance of speed and comfort. The sweeping lines and sculpted curves of its exterior are a testament to Pininfarina's design prowess. Inside, the driver and passengers are ensconced in luxury, surrounded by the unmistakable aroma of fine Italian leather. Ferrari's commitment to performance and style reaches new heights with the 612 Scaglietti, making it a top contender for those seeking a blend of speed and practicality.
Nissan GTR R35: Japanese Precision with Supercar Performance
A microchip masterclass, the long awaited sequel to the now iconic R34 Skyline, the R35 GTR is the car for the Gran Turismo generation. A twin-turbocharged V6 engine and all-wheel-drive means that the GTR will out class cars with far more prestigious badges.
Like its predecessors the R35 range includes a wide array of special editions and trim levels, from tuning houses like Nismo. The prices of these cars can vary, but they all offer value for money, reliability and performance that lives up to the Godzilla nickname.
The reality is that, if you have £100,000 to spend, there is a huge array of cars to buy. We’ve just sampled a few, but there are over 5,000 classifieds for you to browse on Carhuna.
