Can I follow with an Armstrong Siddeley 236?

Therecan only be one contender for this spot.

I disagree. I couldn't decide between a BMW 2401, Volvo 240, Nissan 240RS or Datsun 240 Z, so I made one car from all 4 of them:

I found a 133 Cunningham buried in a garden once. I was very young, probably 7 or 8, and was fascinated by its shape. I cleaned it up, removing all the soil from its wheelarches, and kept it in a drawer. Fast forward about 5 years and I had discovered Classic & Sportscar. One day I saw a feature on Cunningham, and was able to recognise the shape of the C5R that matched the old car I found a few years earlier. I dug it out of the drawer and hand-painted it the correct white with twin blue stripes. The tyres had long-since perished, but a chance attendance at a toy fair resulted in a brand new set being fitted so I was back on the road! (Well, carpet). Must see if I still have it in the loft...

I guess 244 and 245 are obvious Volvo shoe-ins, so let's have a Dino 246, albeit not one of the obvious pictures of one
