“Good morning Mr. Walrus, how’s tricks?”
“Silly Miss Ireland, trix are for kids.”
“Riiiiiiight. Anywho here is last week’s winning car and this week’s match.”
“Can’t wait.”
“Then wait no more.”
Winner
This week’s matchup
The McLaren F1 announced the British supercar maker’s foray into modern racing when it was unveiled in 1992. Six years later, it set the record for the world’s fastest production car, at 242 mph. “The McLaren F1 was Formula One legend Gordon Murray’s high-tech supercar answer to Porsche and Ferrari,” Hagerty says. “And it didn’t just exceed the standards they established, it obliterated them. Driving an F1 is a sublime ballet of shocking power, braking, and control.” McLaren only built 64 of these, but fortunately, it just put up for sale chassis #69, the 60th model built.

The quirky Volvo P1800 was stylish enough for Roger Moore to drive one in the spy thriller TV series The Saint. This two-seater sports car is durable: one surviving model has clocked more than three million miles. Its brethren belong to private owners, but check with the Volvo Owners Clubs if you’d like to find one for sale or make an owner an offer.

While this is true Miss Ireland, just remember though, Cap’n Crunch is for wannabe Pirates…real Pirates also of course. And you know what Pirates are capable of when their parrots start talking dirty.
I would have voted for the Volvo in some of the other match-ups, but against the McLaren, no contest.
This feels like a 2D, stripped down episode if Top Gear. What would it take to get Jeremy, Richard, and James to become co-bloggers for IMAO?
