Does anyone else share my secret passion?

Owned one of each and killed both to my shame :(. Good fun when young though :).

Neither picture was one of mine, illustration purposes only, I would NEVER fit those wheels.

Well, I was a vauxhall fan - Had many carltons and senators... *always* wanted a monza.... Never got one, and I guess they've all rotted away by now !!

Both were beautiful cars. I remember a mate of mine buying a red 'B', it was wonderful.

Love the 'A', as I have a thing for retro cars anyhoo :p

My cousin had a 'B' GT/E in white with the racing stripes on it.. Thought it was the coolest thing ever :)

I had a white Manta 1.8S but loved the earlier shape which was just beautiful like the classic toy sports car shape. Had a range of carltons and Senators but never the monza (or vauxhall "Royale") and like ian always wanted one
