    my choice would be (cheapest first)

    1980s supra, lotus esprit or jensen interceptor

    I like the Supra very much - it would be my choice, but having said that, to find a good one, is rare these days.

    And yes she has done two rally courses, one in North Yorks and another in Finland on snow and ice :D she can handle a car better than most blokes, she also has a clean licence and full no claims.

    There is a time and a place for some driving fun, just happens the nearest roundabout is one of them due to its design and general level of very low traffic.
