Just wait till your married

Really?

Dan, I know your a pedant, but you've lost the plot on this one mate. Go and harass someone for buying Falken tyres

You can't say a 350z roadster is anymore of a sportscar than the coupe, if anything it's less so due to the added weight Also, the word 'nippy' can't be added to 'sports car'. I would describe a 1.4 C2 as 'nippy' compared to the 1.1, but neither are sports car

And slow!!! You could make a 2-seater, rwd drop top Milk Float, that doesn't make it a sports car

Since when was an MR2 Roadster a sports car?????????????

A Celica is not fast.

The Lambo still does it for you then. Hmmmm......think it must be this for me now http://www.ferrari.com/English/GT_Sport ... pider.aspx Good job its just a day dream otherwise I would have to have a hair transplant as well Beautiful cars, just way out of my budget for the next ten years I'd say Lambo & Ferrari seem to really ramping the prices up now

But what is your order of preference, no restrictions applying As you can see, my list includes two seaters, 4x4's, saloon's and even 15 years old supercar's Which basically show's that I have no idea what I'm going to get into As much as I'd like to pick a car without restrictions, I have to Basically, with a three year old and one due in January, I need to look at bigger cars. I can't really afford two expensive cars, and as the Mrs wouldn't accept a cheapo family car hence me looking at X5 & Q7's etc with me then looking at something cheap like a zed or an M3 etc. Without restrictions I'd be in Gallardo again (Spyder this time) and the family can walk everywhere, it'll do them good

I've been doing this for three years Nothing like a world financial crisis followed by two kids to curtail your frivolous car spending Over the last three years I've been following: Lotus Exige's Lotus Evora'a R35 RS4 E92 M3 E46 M3 370z's 350z's X5 M5 355 360 430 Gallardo R8 335d ML Caymen 997 I've nearly bought a few of the above when the itch got really bad, only to be brought down to earth by Mrs Sarnie I could probably quite accurately price almost any of the cars above, that's how bad it's got I'll be back though, with a big splash

Boom! Ricey got owned

1000 posts? Meh...........

FAST????

As would most but they were on the list to choose from

+1 You would have to be doing huge mileage to make to cost efficient.

Plan at the moment is to spend no more than £2k to get a economical car for the commute and use the Zed at the weekends. If I get the job then I will have the car ready for the drives - and until then I'll probably only have to fill it up once a month with my current commute. As for renting vs buying - I really don't want to rent, it feels like throwing money down the drin and will just make it harder when saving to buy somewhere. Renting..... well you either pay (for example) £500 a month to rent somewhere, or £500 a month in interest to line a banks greedy palms for your mortgage. Then, with property prices falling, i know people whose houses have dropped by 25% this last year alone, so on a 150k house thats £37500 you have just thrown away over 12 months. Of course, people say that over the long term property goes up in value... and it does.. but it would have to go up by a hell of a lot to give you a better return over what you are paying in interest on the mortgage. I'm sorry but that's utter rubbish. A £500 a month mortgage is not £500 of interest. A certain % is capital unless your on interest only. Even if a property loses 25%, it's only relevant when you sell. If you sell in 10 years times, it's value 9 years before that is wholly irrelevant. House prices are not like car depreciation; they actually go both ways If someone rents for ten years, thats 120 rent payments (120 x £500 = £60,000) down the drain. A 100% waste of money. There is no return on that money. If you bought a place, yes a % is interest but you may have paid off £25,000 or so and the property may have risen £20,000, thats £45,000 of accessible equity that you have. Even if the house price was the same as when you bought it, you could sell up and get £25k back. What would you get if you were renting for ten years? Sweet FA.

I can't help but think this is going to be the new Celica........semi good looking, but so under powered that it just ends up with women owning them.........

Good luck mate

Just remembered that I saw this at the Geneva Motor Show:

How did she drive home from work after having the keys stolen?

Stupid aluminium vent trims that weren't sticky enough to stay stuck down, and this was when they cost £50

It looks like a 370z with a chav kit on it to me.......

I would go with the one you think your least likely to ever own
