Depends what your looking for bud
Escorts hold there value well. Slow in standard form. Best looking card from your list!
Birds will do anything for you in a TVR
oh and they aint to slow either. (never been in one mind)
Skylines i found quite un-involving unless you have big power.
Evo 7. Awsome awsome cars. Words which comes to mind though are maintainance costs. However is the best car i have ever been in for out the box performance
M5, Rapid, lux, style. But can you afford to fix it?
RS focus. Great for every day but no a patch on the above cars
So if i had to do big miles daily and only had the one car it would be the Focus.
If i had a short drive daily and wanted a drivers car. It would be the evo.
If it was a second car to pop in the garage and get out to look good in it
would be the escos.
If i was a drug dealer and wanted my hoe's to sit in the back it would be the M5. Or if i wanted a comfortable road rocket, the M5
And if you wanted big big power it would be the Skyline or the TVR

from what I've read, you'd better be ready for 8 grand top end rebuilds every 20k or so then Lee. 
I was looking at some Tuscans the other week, (still nothing on the road that looks like them!
) and despite having a really soft spot for TVRs, even I was put off when the salesman said if he had a choice of another engine in them, they wouldn't sell the speed 6 tuscans at all. Those speed 6 engines apparently really ARE that bad. even when they've had all the maintenace and upgraded cam followers etc done.
out of the list above I'd go for the Cerbera (4.5 ONLY though) or else the M5, but then again I'm thinking abotu getting one of those now and ditching my saff.

mmmmmmm TVR
my mate has one and it makes the girlies moist, shame he doesnt though
keep nagging him to borrow it
its not as fast as a stage 3 saff, but its definately a real drivers car, and his hasnt been that much trouble to be honest
