Just looking at what to buy next, obviously if another STI drops in 2013 then i will look. But ive been looking about and i have some ideas.

GTR see them for 38k but i bet when its time i may be able to grab a good un for 35 later.

M6 well 96k new and now you can pick them up for 27k with 20k on How much depreciation LOL but the fuel looks bad on these babies, anybody views of them.

any other Marques like the above, special ones. Not intrested in 335I im looking more speaclist like
GTR
M class
RS class
Porker maybe

you get my picture

Thanks

For a car probably a maserati quattroporte, Or Porsche 997 but tend to favour 4x4 at the moment so Porsche Cayenne or a Range Rover. OK not to everyone tatse but I just like them
Saying that I think I would end up been too scared to use either the Range Rover or the Cayenne off road so would probaly get a £5K to 10K shogun for playing around / dirty jobs and the rest on a BMW 123D or 530D.

35k gets alot of car if you look at low milage examples as well, you take such a big hit when you drive off the forcourt.

realy depends what sort of car you want, 2 door, 4 door, sports, saloon, etc etc etc

Bristol98

M5 all the way!

Tidgy

you will struggle with an M5 for near 35k, new ones are still 60-70, older ones are 25ish

Try a GTR, and then compare the rest to it. At or near this money it is the benchmark for useful performance in something reasonably new and reliable that could be an only car. Decide mainly whether you can live with the running costs and firm ride, and whether alternatives give you a better blend according to your preference, but trying a GTR first will give you a benchmark IMHO.

Only dismiss the 335i once you've tried one. I was very near to purchasing one having tried the rest!

Tidgy

hehe, 35k gets you alot of car dunit

I think I prefer my aston to yours

If i had £35k to spend on a car, i wouldnt just be buying one car!

For that budget its definately got to be something usable and sensible parked next to your bonkers toy!

Id say a bmw 330d, next to a road converted tuscan race car... that'd be a nice mix.

Dub-Se7en

Vauxhall Monaro VXR or VXR8. love 'em

CREWJ

Personally I'd get a 123d and a Litchfield.

I would go for this http://pistonheads.com/sales/3735202.htm

Jeez,
cant imagine having 35k to spend on a motor!
I only paid 35k for my house
Whatever you get is going to be very enjoyable to say the least
Good hunting

I think its all relative. When I went from a 1.2 Polo to a V6 Cougar many moons ago I couldnt imagine how anyone could want more power, it felt like a supercar to me. If you're Chris Evans and lost your collection of hypercars and was told you could only buy a car worth £35 I recon you would be pretty miserable.

stilover

For £35k the world is your Oyster.

997 Carrera S?
96 Turbo, GT3?
RS4
M3

Or what about an Aston Martin V8 Vantage? Might not be as quick as the Porsche, but looks way way better. The noise alone.........

Bentley Conty GT?

Suppose it just depend what your after? Weekend toy, every day car, or something just to cruise around in?

Littleted

Ok 2 or 4 doors but must have 4 seats

Gtr I admit is my fav, but as the guys said, I'd like mega luxary too like a loaded m5 m6

I cant see the point in having 35k in a car unless your going to show it to its full potential. I would sooner buy a 20k car and spend time on some serious track action both uk and overseas.

Each to their own I suppose.

im going with the 2 car option, a beast and a daily motor

failing that, if a good gtr can be had at that money, that would be my choice.

lucky man

i just couldnt spend that much on a car.

BIG FUD

iTrader: (84)

Ive just gone through what you are going through and cant think that i could of made a better choice.As many know ive had most subarus at many different levels But my 996 twin turbo porsche i now own is seriously the best car ive brought and owned.

M3 ive done it no sound to it and far to many around
gtr for the money and running costs they are a big machine to use every day.
m class very nice but you will get bored .

I would go test drive 3-5 cars and see how you feel,But week after week my996 tt with an extra 90bhp and 100ft trq is pure class. 35k low mileage 1-2 owners fpsh 200mph super car ...

ps im paid up for.

30-130 the weekend
Cat driver training next month
Ring in may .

I wouldn't even have to think about this. £35-40k = GTR and nothing else.

£35K? With mortgage rates / property prices as they are, I would use it as a deposite on several investment properties.

Give it 4 years and that £35K will be worth far more, so you would be looking at far better cars.

Failing that, £35K ? I would get a good 4x4, Mitsubishi Shogun Diamond and some sporty RS4 B5.

And after 4 years he could invest that £50k in more property, then he could do it again, and again... Eventually he'd be on his death bed with millions in the bank

Or he could enjoy life a bit and not worry about being the richest man in the graveyard.

Agree, didnt even look at the car just picked a cheap M3
