Currently not in the market for a new car but sometimes have a quick look at lunchtime to see whether any of my oddball marques are available that I would love to have in the garage.
Today I came up trumps :

However, suspect its definitely beyond my means. Even if it was, I doubt the chat to Sandra to trade in the Porsche Spyder for this it would not go down well
Wondering what other vehicles the S.E masses have a surf on the classified for?

Had a poke about one of them when my S1 was having its first service down at Lakeside. I recall Max saying it was pretty quick but a handful.

Always wanted one of these, alongside an Alpine A610, 964RS and Esprit would be my perfect unusual classic car garage.
Still remember my youth when Clarkson wrote for Performance Car and did a back to back comparison between the Venturi/Renault.
Amazing how memories linger.

Nice Atlantique.
For my ideal classic car garage the A610 for me has to be in yellow:
The 964 RS has to be in Rubystone Red

Yep noticed it this morning.
Funnily enough that advert was the one that I picked up first and got me looking again at Venturi"s
