10.) Lancia Delta

Not sure if the name Erwin Komenda was called in one of the 600+ replies but he was responsible for:

Is this even a question?

Was looking for one once. Found a 60k kms for 24k euros at the Audi dealership. I'm not sure if the US-car market differs when it comes to warranty but with that price it's normal to have at least 3 months warranty on parts&service. The Audi dealer however replied with just: 'We don't do warranty on used S4s. Ever.'

I think the person behind the camera had pretty good view of that remote and deserted road. 'Thumbs up' would be sufficient from over there.

Inka!

What's fun about not getting to the destination of your 100 mile commute? Yes, that nr. 2 of course.

Never new this one, looks like an Opel Senator!

Finally someone brings them up. Only 1000cc!

Indeed there has never been a manual V8 W126, even not in Europe as an option. AMG/Brabus made conversions with manuals (and more power of course) but these can hardly be seen as Mercedes-Benz Factory cars in those days (just look at the picture!). The 'base' 6-cylinder were available as a manual but so was a 728i. Or…

The Lamborghini Museum in Sant'Agata Bolognese is fabulous, should be on this list. As should be Beaulieu, Musee le Mans 24 heures and probably the biggest absence: the Louwman Museum in The Hague. There's even an exhibition of Martini cars and it was awarded the Museum of the year in 2013 by the Historic Motoring…

Outside Europe, it came with a 2.8 which only had 288 hp. Still, that was good for a 155 mph top speed.

Well, you don't have a choice when it comes to the transmission in a Polo GTI: it only comes with a DSG over here. Otherwise I would have gotten a manual. 'Engine braking', not bad. When I would litteraly translate dutch-to-English it would be 'Braking on the Engine'. Okay, one picture for you of my GTI on the…

Never used the +/- on the shifter, most of the time I was using the automatic-mode and once in a while I used the paddles behind the wheel, mainly when shifting down to decelerate using the engine revs (not quite sure how to translate this into English). And when hoonin'. Of course. But I still prefer a manual for…

However: When the transmission works as designed it's great and the best automatic I've ever driven.

When it works it's utterly great nevertheless. But it's image is quite notorious and I had the advantage of having it replaced within warranty. Having it replaced however took over a week by the dealer as VW is always in short-supply of these transmissions, I wonder why ;-)

Battery-flat-in-six-days was after a trip of 1000km's to France. Never used it for short distances, was my daily drive and normally I commute around 100kms a day. Six days is, in any case, way to little. After the GTI I needed a diesel and more space for the kid, traded it in for a 177hp Volvo V40 D4 non-auto, great…

Had one (Abt 210hp, 7-speed DSG), wasn't that impressed with it when it comes to handling, otherwise great car. Took it to the Nordschleife where handling started to grow on me. To bad that only after 50k kilometers the DSG needed a complete replacement. And that it wouldn't start after 6 days of non-usage.

For those who didn't know: Two worlds-theory is in Season 7 episode 8, 'the Pool Guy'. That's what the TV-show Seinfeld was all about, learning about life.
