Worst,1935 Rolls Royce silver something,best,Aston Martin Lagonda DB 10
You owned a Lagonda!!! If so, I'll say holy Shazaam right now! One of these spaceships?:
Mr Marriott owned one back in the mid 80's. He had it serviced beside a restaurant I worked at. I frequented the garage admiring some of the Jag's and Aston Martin's they sold & serviced. I became friendly enough with his chauffer who let me drive it one time.(I was a District Manager at the Marriott owned restaurant, so we sort of worked for the same guy..) I still remember the feel of that plush carpets and the leather upholstery. Those things were something like $150k which is probably $300k in todays money.

I forgot to mention my favorite. My daughter's 2001 VW Beetle 1.9 liter diesel. Bulletproof motor and gets 44 mpg in town and 52 mpg on the road. And it will keep up with our V6 Buick.
