Oh alright.
young man in me says a 3/4 year-old Focus RS Turbo, maybe a 1/2 year old Seat Leon
sensible family man in me says a Honda Accorda 2.2 turbodiesel, get one on an 04/05 plate specc-ed up to the eyeballs & does best part of 45/gallon.
old man in me says a 7/8 year-old Jag XK8. f**k the environment, who cares about fuel economy.
tragically, having gone through the same thought process as you, I then bought a Merc as I have aspirations.....Comment

15 K to spend.
New in no order.
Hyundai coupe
Toyota celica 1.8 VVTi
Toyota MR2 (best 2 seater roadster below 20k)
Honda Civic type R (best hot hatch)
Subaru Impreza WRi ( best performance for money parallel import at this money)
Golf GTtdi (torque performance with economy)
Second hand
4 year old Honda s2000
18 month old Chrysler crossfire (not class leading but depreciate really quick, so good value after used)
Lexus IS200 - better than a BMW 3 series, more exclusive and bullet proof.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.”Comment
