Was going to use the M5 as an everyday car but there is 4 seen flaws:

1--Its fucking insane and i can see a ban if used everyday
2--MPG (averging 13mpg)
3--Its getting a DMS tune to 550bhp
4--A tubi exhaust so people will hear me from miles away

Now dont get me wrong, fuel consumption is not a real concern but its just not possible to drive sensibly

So what car for circa 10k - 15k thats fast, fun, reliable, and fairly economical like averging atleast 18mpg would be good

911?
M3?
Boxster?
Evo?


Sorry its another look at me post but some offer valuable advice

 

a hot hatch, for instance a used golf gti?

 

 

Why can others post about wanting new cars, but not Phil? I'd go for an M3.

Benni.

 

Astra VXR?

Gotta be more economical than your choices lol

 

330d sport power and great economy

 

focus rs or merc c220d or new lancer

 

mk1 FRS

(Impreza WR1) lol

 

@ Danneth. Random but very funny!

 

Try a bicycle. If you can't behave yourself, no matter what bhp you got, you shouldn't be behind a wheel in the first place.

 

..drive an m5 mate your see what i mean! No other car other than a cossie brings the hooligan out in me

It HAS to be a look at me car

 

spend some decent money and get one of these bmw x6 35d

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2008-08-BMW-X6...item4a9e7ce13f

 

PMSL at the tags...bored of my gloating...why am i gloating? i live in a shitty semi detached bungalow and got no kids so have money to spend on cars? Its only gloating if you are jealous...but no need to be...just pop round my shit hole of a house!

 

Phil
Do you need another car ive not had my own wheels since November 2008 & i dont really need any now. Their are other things in life, if cars are the Top thing you exist for then get alife for heaven sake.

 

what an odd thing to say...

 

Why Rod? Cars are my life? Nowt wrong in that surely? I am fully secure have a thriving business (for now) dont need a bigger house...you may not be aware i am really quite ill needing benzo drugs daily to keep me going. A mental illness is no fun and i am not ashamed of it! So fuck yeah cars keep me going

 

I do wonder if there's something missing in your life if you want to change these high value cars every couple of weeks. Something's not right.

 

Whys that I dont run a car & have not done so for 18months so whats odd about what i said. My Cossie was last on the road in Febuary 2006.

 

Haha

 

You have way to much money.

 

I aint selling nowt, i got rid of the cossies YES but that is no backward step

Damn why the hating guys atleast you have your health!

To edit YES i am missing a properly functioning brain! except its no actual joke!

 

diesel st155 mondeo, get it remapped

they fly around town, 45-50+ to the gallon and a nice every day car

6 speed box, leather just a good car

 

You are saying you wont drive it daily cause it makes you want to drive fast, then you are saying you want a fast car to use instead?

Why not just buy an economical diesel or small petrol car if you want something its easy to behave in that doesnt cost much to run.

 

christ,gotta laugh at this.......if you've got it flaunt it.......but do it quirtly.........

 

Why does the guy need a life if cars are his life? what a load of bullshit, i sense jelousy.

ima racing im with you on this i change cars every few months, but nothing of the calibre of your motors.

Only thing is why would you want a new car to keep you civilised when your options are insane cars?

 

what exactly is your business?

 

i think you need a project car

not something flash, something you have to take apart and fix etc

i am being serious when i say this......an old landrover

my dad ported and polished the head and rehoned the block, rebuilt the engine/gearbox himself all in a garage that wouldnt even fit it in all, with basic tools

give it some thought about what you actually you want, if you are into cars and get bored easily think about taking a project on

 

lotus exige s sport//because i wnat 1 lol...nice car tho phil..

or focus rs mk1.

 

Gay porn star

Chip, no other car has made me drive it like a cossie, the AMG is monstrous but civilised...the M5 is just something else So for my sanity and for the fact the escos/3dr/f-car/xjr/NSR are all sold!!! A nice liitle sane runner BUT it has to be something special i really cannot see anything for upto 15k in the caliber of the M5 to make me insane...or maybe its the drugs? ROFL...side effects do say risk taking/invicibility No joke!!!!!

 

To add i dont get bored of cars!!!!! I upgrade if needed as cash becomes avalible...there is no other motorbike like a 916sp so sorted there....the merc youd need to spend 300k+ to get a faster better looking droptop production car IMO so sorted there...M5 there is no better engine availble out there currently i mean 507bhp from a n/a motor no mean feat plus the sound plus the V10 is being dropped so a very iconic car!

 

What you want is either a Boxster or a Focus ST. Obviously they're completely different, but whichever one of those suits your needs/wants best would be perfect.

 

boxster s?

 

Yes a boxster s seems a good choice i guess 2003 on for the facelift.

 

ive only driven one boxster S that i could really hammer, and i must say i really enjoyed it. its so complete as a driving experience. go try one phil

 

PMSL at the "get a prossy" tag i got one its called her indoors she earns well

Gareth was it manual or tip? Would need a tiptronic for the missus They do look very nice.

 

Phil how about a lotus elise? different to what you've got already.... not mental quick to instant ban speeds....

 

...just dont like the look of a lotus elise

 

Tiptronic ruins the driving experience IMO. It's acceptable on a 911, but goes against the best attributes of the boxster! If you really do need an auto, I'd just stick to a more cruiser-ish 330ci convertible or something

 

manual, and ive never driven an auto porsche so cant really comment

 

Or as a wildcard suggestion, what about a 635csi?

Now they definitely DO suit an auto box, will definitely stand out in the crowd, have enough power to make them really nice to drive, but in a wafty, non-hooligan type way.

Go a bit retro and uber-stylish
