Having suffered my first ever epileptic seizure about 3 years ago, I got to experience the joy of public transport only, first for 6 months, then 12 months after another seizure. Thankfully I can now drive again.

For a high speed autobahn blast it'd be a choice of two,both turbo'd either Jaguar XJ220 or Lotus Carlton. For a country twisty road run then it'd be n/a in a 3litre Senator B.

Turbo or NA would do but if it was your last ever drive you would want something slow and take your time so my vote is for steam power
