Although I wasn't driving then I'd have to go with the 60's. It was the heyday of British car manufacturing. All those lovely Jags, MGs, Triumphs etc. and no speed cameras.
What could be better than cruising around on, relatively, uncongested roads in an E-Type?It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die0 -

I agree. Although I'm not the E-type's biggest fan there were plenty of great cars around then.0 -
I'm not the biggest E-Type fan either but it just seemed like a pretty iconic 60's car to mention. Personally I think I'd prefer an Elan.It's my problem, it's my problem

Elan's a good call, And the esprit although I suppose thats more of a 70's car.0 -
The Esprit wasn't introduced until 1976 so definately a 70's car.It's my problem, it's my problem

I count the turbo as the first proper esprit, think that was early 80's

I'd say the 80's as it was an era when most cars came with an element of quality (rather than the 70's junk) and people could start to afford them - think Golf GTi's, XR2's, XR3's etc.The man without a signature.0
