My story...was given a Scalextric slot car set for Christmas ....a long time ago... and been hooked on Cobras since then. See the green FIA in my avatar? It's in front of me still, on my desk.
Other cars? I tend to hang on to cars, so when family needs dictated losing the 2-door, we bought a 'sensible' 4-door, an Alfetta, which is still in the my garage after 36 years. It was a daily driver until nine years ago.
Cobra replicas are rare to see on the road here (Adelaide, South Aus.) so every time I saw a magazine featuring a Cobra, I bought it. The FIA shape was the one that really pushed my buttons, so fast forward to 2011 when I put down a deposit for an ERA 289FIA with Peter....but for a number of reasons, I asked for it back after nearly a year (though I still very much have a soft spot for ERA cars). I then visited AP in Queensland (Aus), thought about it for a while longer, and then put another deposit down for my AP 289FIA, which is slowly taking shape in my garage.
Cheers,
Glen
