Oh shaddap you rice lovers. Trying to get take the battle elsewhere now you know your rice has been over boiled. It was also predictable after I mentioned "blue collar workers".

Seeing as the 'blue collar workers' tag must mean you see a car as a status symbol what sort of image does a Z4 driver think he's projecting?

That he takes it up the arse and can give you a lovely blue rinse?

I don't think so Baggy. You're like an old mate of mine who thought his 2.0l Capri was a "Porsche beater".

If you are talking about ability to go sideways in the wet*, maybe it was.

I think we've reached the end of this discussion and I've made my mind up.

boxster - great car but for 10K it'll be pretty old so could turn into a nightmare.
BMW - no thanks. Not a fan.
S2000 - that's the 1 for me. Good value for money.

Will test drive one in the next couple of weeks.

thanks for all your help.

much appreciated.

Actually the "blue collar workers" tag relating to the S2000 is not of my own mind, it`s often been noted before. And I know a few owners and it rings true. But who cares, I noted it here as a larf.

I don`t see a car as a status symbol at all. Having said that, impressions matter in business. I mean who on first appearance seems more successful, someone driving an S Reg Ford with a dent in it, or someone who takes a client out to lunch in an M Powered BMW? Sure, I know it`s BS but impressions matter in business.

Not that long ago I drove a D reg BMW around just for the hell of it, many people hated it, but it was a great topic of discussion.


You could say the same about those who dislike BMW`s because of the image. If many people drove one they`d think a llittle differentlty

A cheaper alternative is an old Capri with a motorbike engine.
