L00b Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) S class 350 or A8 3.0 quattro diesels, best low miler that money can get. Alternative: a fresher low-miles 5-doored Impreza WRX (hawkeye estate, not 'orrid hatch) and a 2.7 Boxster S. (I'm going to be grateful for the current scoob's AWD and hi-lo gbox the morning ) Funnily enough, atm I'm tracking an S320 and a 2.7 Boxster on fleabay. Both sub-45kmiles with 1 owner...and I'd have about £16k spare from your budget if I bought both for their respective asking! PS: we do have a dog, which we do take on 600 mile trips (in the C220 saloon, no bother whatsoever) Edited January 29, 2015 by L00b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickey finn Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 By heck, older Bentleys cost £50035000? I don't like the look of the X6, in fact I think it is hideous, an old Bentley I would love, but the running costs would probably kill me. Saw an i3 in the flesh recently, looked a lot better in real life than on the images in my opinion, certainly something different! I agree, it is vile. ---------- Post added 29-01-2015 at 00:04 ---------- 7 ex post office vauxhall combo vans. would last me the rest of my life. plus. my penis is already big enough. i dont need a car to substitute for its lacking. What a rubbish comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that he can go for a walk in the back of the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bloom Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Technically, not a car, but anyway.... http://motorhomes.autotrader.co.uk/used-motorhomes/volkswagen/transporter/2010-volkswagen-t5-transporter-lwb-140-bhp-diesel-launceston-mfpa-8aa142354b0bff99014b189aca843f45/makemodel/make/volkswagen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stimpy Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Mustang-GT500-Shelby-2010-Model-with-upgrades-/381138663097?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item58bda276b9 thats all your 35k but what a car you might need 1k a week for juice tho You might be suprised on the fuel. Granted its no 1.1l runaround, but the returns are fairly good fo such a big car.... I have a ute with the same/similar engine (supercharged pushing 500rwhp) and I use it as my daily. Probably costs 100gbp per week in fuel once I convert it back. I will admit that push the loud pedal will see a return of about 3mpg! Looks like it has had the stock eaton m122 removed and replaced with the magnusson TVS 2.3l blower unit. This will run to about the claimed 650bhp if it has the supporting mods Edited January 29, 2015 by stimpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootsBooster Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 A newer, bigger camper van. Possibly a long wheelbase T4/T5 or maybe something bigger, bordering on motorhome size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vwkittie Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 A Mazda 3 MPS I think, if we're talking about buying a brand new car. Masses of fun, nice looking, reasonably unusual The forthcoming one looks amazing, I would absolutely LOVE one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny_Boy Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 A Mazda 3 MPS I think, if we're talking about buying a brand new car. Masses of fun, nice looking, reasonably unusual The forthcoming one looks amazing, I would absolutely LOVE one. Having taken delivery of a new car in the last few months this is an interesting topic. Had I had £35k at the time of ordering I think I would have gone for the Merc A class AMG. However I didn't so I settled on a VW Golf R which I absolutely love to bits. The 4 wheel drive has really helped me the last couple of days as well I am a big fan of hot hatch backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
