      I've been eyeing up a 350Z for a while now... always get good reviews and really look the part. You'd have a fair amount of change from £35k too

          although I have enough money for a really expensive car I don't see the point, I can't drive it anywhere on Uk roads >50% of what it can do, I'd rather use that money toward a better house, like Dim said there used to be many choices of fun mid ranged cars. Now everyone seems to make the same box. Toyota don't even make a sports car anymore
          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

              FOR Every inch the tyre-shredding muscle car. The 350Z provides barrel-loads of poke and a thrill-a-minute driving experience.

              AGAINST Limited practicality and running costs likely to be high.

                Bagpus. £35K is the deposit on another BTL.

                Get bus pass and a BTL and then next year, sell up and buy a Porsche 911.

                Boomed!

                  See! If that's the only things going against it then I'm sold... You could apply that to any sports car!

                  Don't want that 'Burnt orange' launch colour though. Yuk.

                    Quite cheap second hand too, but how much is the road tax? I imagine it's in the new 'super nasty selfish bastard' band.

                      If you are fine with just 2 seats then it is a very good car for your money. I drove one as a rental for a year. Great fun when I don't have to pay for tyres
