Right will be coming into some money in the near future and was wondering what car you guys would get.

I have a work van slash run around all ready, g/f has a good tdi for longer trips etc, not sure i realy want a gti6 then going silly with the mods because i will never get anything back ever from it, recent cars have been looking at are:

Audi rs4
Bmw m3
focus rs new shape
tvr cerberas
tvr tuscan speed six
richard burns edition scooby
evo 8 or 9 then modify
toyota supra single turbo manual
mercedes sl55 amg
s2000 maybe rotrex supercharge it

Car will mainly be a toy, weekend car, odd track day.

Your views.

I'd be tempted by an Elise, Esprit or a Caterham 7 if i had that sort of money purely to blow on a car. I doubt any of them will depreciate too much either if that was a concern.

    In regards to not getting any money back when/if selling in future id go for something like a escort cosworth or something along those lines as shouldn't really depreciate + still very capable

    Or maybe one of the older ones and sort the brakes and suspension out as Chris Harris said about them.

    Dont any form of hatch! Get some serious metal instead.
    A focus rs may be good but its still a hatch thats trying very hard
    A M3 is a sport coupe and imo a proper weapon.
    If you think about it theres very little your can get post m3 that is significantky better

    If it was my money thats where it would go
