    Nothing, if you want a poor mans porsche. You could get a fair 911 for the same money.

      I would get:

      Vovlo V70
      Honda Accord Tourer EX

      Both nice choices.

        Mercedes AMG C32, I bought a second hand 01 plate £18.5k, verrryyy fast, de-badged so everyone thinks its just a C180 though the exhaust note and wheels give it away a bit, when I bought mine the previous owner had had the 155mph limiter removed. Personnally I wouldnt buy new unless thats what you really want. .

          I drive the xc70, amrchair on wheels, lovely. Saving up for a db9 after hiring one for a couple of days, such amazing car.

            I've got one of them which I bought new in 2002 and am selling it soon as I think I'll get a new one. Not a bad car but I've had a few problems such as already on the second engine, 3rd set of front discs, etc. Saw the new C63 the other day which is loud and fast.

                I'm wrestling with a dilemma .. Being a tight git and begrudging this government any taxation I should be either riding me bike or driving as fuel-efficient a vehicle as possible.
                The trouble is that as a successful contractor, life’s little luxuries are the reward for putting up with Permie *******.
