...now as some may think i am a windup merchant....but not always and since my return and the ignoring of certain users i feel i have settled right down
..hope you all feel this too.
So you got 50k to buy one car,would you buy a cossie/jap car and mod it to go mentally fast or would you buy an M5 or AMG or Ferrari etc etc etc...try to be honest...would you honestly choose to tune a car rather than buy a current hi tc monster production car which is reliable?
In no way a diss to reyland,yum,rod etc you have chosen the path you want but i can see you being a dying breed (no pun intended!)

I would like to think that i would buy a Cossie and tune it beyond belief but i think the honest thing i would do is go and buy some newer monster, an M5 maybe, a Monaro etc with still some money to tune with

If money wasn't an option, and I had 50k floating about, then something like this

I would have what's already parked in my garage, your price tag wouldn't buy a duplicate btw. For Ł50k you could buy two AMG's and do double bragging...

With 50k to spend on cars I would buy a 1936 Morris 8 & a 1933 Morris Minor this would set me back about 15k the rest I would give to Phil to try & get his life sorted out.

if i was spending 50k on a car i think id want something that was fast as standard, so i could get in it and drive it, and id expect for that sort of money to never have any problems, though i can also see why it would be good to spend 20k on an escos and 30k making it ridiculously fast
bit of a tough one that

Noble M12 GTO and get it tuned a little bit (maybe 400-420 if thats poss on standard internals)
