We've all had the fantasy – leading a 30-car police chase through the desert or making a daring escape through winding city streets, Gone in 60 Seconds style to save your idiot brother from being turned into the world's squishiest license plate. Here's the challenge: find the world's best getaway car for under $5000, on eBay.

Here are the rules:

• Selections aren't limited to simply 'cars' (kit cars, trucks, and military/commercial vehicles included)

• Cars must have a realistic selling price under $5,000.

• Cars must be operable/easily restored to running condition.

• Completed and sold listings can be included.

• You can add modifications, as long as it doesn't go over the total budget.

• Write a short reason why your car is the ultimate getaway machine.

  Now go find a car that would make Eleanor blush. You have 24 hours.

  I'll arrange the best selections after making sure I don't have a tail.
