How about:

 

1. Jaguar S-Type R 4.2 V8 Supercharged. They normally come with Sat Nav, Voice Activation, Park Aid, Xenon Headlamps etc. Its a lot of car for £15,000 or less. The engine can be chipped if needed.

2005 JAGUAR S-TYPE 4.2 V8 R 4dr Auto [Euro 4] Saloon

 

2. Jaguar XJR 4.2 V8 Supercharged. Similar money to the S-Type. 2003 on are an all aluminium body. Huge performance and top spec. 2003 JAGUAR XJ Super V8 4.2 Supercharged

 

3. Mazda RX-8. Not many 231's about good spec and obsece performance. I've had a Golf GTI, it was a pile of poo in comparison. Golf bats do fit on the back seat (I used to have one ;))2004 MAZDA RX8 4dr [231] Coupe

 

4. Volvo V70 T5. a left field choice really, good performance, good spec and tuneable. 2006 Volvo V70 2401 cc T5 SE Sport

 

have a look at those to be getting on with

Sorry just had an inspector morse moment then with those Jags lol they are styled for someone a bit older than me :p

 

RX8 - does that come with a lifetime supply of oil and carbon tips? ;)

 

@Si - Whatever I get part ex for it tbh

Oh, how about a stupid suggestion.

 

Alfa Brera, the performance, handling, reliability, residual value and economy will be worse then a 3 series. And it's front wheel drive.

 

But.....

lol, well the XJ is deffo not you Chris, you have to be over 80 to own one.

 

The S-Type a bit marmite. If you have the right colour with the right wheels it does look fantastic. Slate Grey with 18" Indianapolis alloys is a nice combo. When I used to sell them, the styling was the biggest obsticle. Having said that, once people had driver the R, they seemed to get past the look of the car.

 

Ask the Mazda dealer nicely he'll probably give you oil for the first year is you say you'll buy one! :p

Next car for me i think!! 3.0D though not the 4.4i, cant afford to run that beast :p

 

I suppose 19mpg isn't to everyone's taste (or pocket!)

Mmmmmm Brera!!!

 

Sexy car!!

 

Unfortunatly its pretty much a Golf/A3 in a more sexy body so a bit of a side step really.

 

@krisd32 - Evo's are great but again its the image that puts me off.

If you were considering the 350z what about a skyline (not a chavy one but one that is basically a 350z but with 4 seats!). My dad has one and its amazing!! 3.5L V6 automatic with tiptronic override for a bit of fun. It holds the road so well, i would say better than my MINI does and thats sayin something as im sure you know! Oh and did i mention the noise!! :eek:

 

The added bonus is that it has 2 seats in the back and the leg room and head room is ok unless your over 6'2" then its a bit of a squeeze! The funniest thing is that on the underneath of the boot lid it shows a picture as to how to fit 2 sets of golf clubs in!!

Renault and Ford are working on a new small car for women. They are mixing

the Clio and the Taurus, and calling it the "Clitaurus." It comes in pink and

the average male thief won't be able to find it, even if someone tells him

where it is.
