    RX8. No torque, sounds like a vacuum cleaner, does 15 mpg and uses more oil than petrol.

    It's the future!

      I thought that too.
      Anyone who has a crash due abusing someone with mechanical problems should consider themselves not fit to drive.
      I am not qualified to give the above advice!

        That's hilarious and top CUK hypocrisy in action

        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.”

          What about the SAAB 9-5.

          Good V6 diesel with all the sportie extras for 5k. Bargain, NO??
          Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

          Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

            Do you know how old the Saab 9-5 design is?

            You might as well buy a Rover.

              About as responsive as a super tanker at 2 knots.

                Good call - had a 9000 and was very happy with it - but never had a Jag or an Audi so thought I'd give 'em a try

                  Never had a SAAB turbo (full fat)

                  About as responsive as stepping an angry landmine

                  I have a diesel VECTRA at the mo, now that is tulip

                    About 03 so they are both aluminium bodied, both interiors designed by a Brit - anyone got/had either?
                    E39 BMW M5

                    P.s. not got one, but if I had 8-10k knocking around for an executive sports-barge that's where it would go.

                      Audi all the way, just a gut feel but they are rock solid. A ex-girlfriend had an A3 and the seat fold flat as well
