Which vehicle would you spend 60,000 quid on?

[Sir_GT]

Just think about it. Not excluding anything. 60 grand, any brand, any model, any modifications, whatever. What would you spend it on, and why. :)

I myself thought about it... upcoming M5 with some add-ons? AC Schnitzer-modded 7-series? Noble M12? A completely whacked-out R34 Skyline? Import a V35 Skyline (its the japan-only big brother of the 350Z) and totally turn it into a fire-breathing nismo monster?

Then all of a sudden I thought about my fiance, our future family, vacations, out of town stuff, school, groceries, safety, resale values, future business meetings, etc. All that real world stuff...

and soooo... I went with a black 2003 Range Rover. Biggest engine. Since they only release one every decade, I'll be good to go for the next ten years.

Damn ghey choice eh? lol.

[levensnevel]

Well,

either a TVR Sagaris, Noble M12 GTO 3R - M400 or a Lotus Exige S2 will do nicely, thank you :wink:

[gis]

2 cars came to mind for me with 60k

1 - a totally re-built and modded mkiv supra TT (no surprise for people who know me on here :lol: )

or

2 - an E46 M3 and with the money sort that car out to be a track weapon and also a street weapon.

[gis]

lol modded M3 vs TVR 350c.......hmmmm should be a good race dont you think,of course my limiter would be removed :P

[fedezyl]

My vote goes to a modded Fiat Panda, twin turbo 150 nitrous shot, 305/25 R19 wheels, and a loud exhaust, of course, half of the money would be spent on, neons, fiber glass body kit, a huge Kevlar wing, and as many stickers I can find.
it would kick, your M3 gis, your TVR everso and anything else on it's way

[stracing]

a S15 Silvia

after fullt modifying it, i still have money left over to buy another car

[Sir_GT]

Fiat Panda?! Lol.

If that's the case, I'll go out and get a Peugot 207 and stick a V12 under it, brembo brakes, (cross-drilled too) a mod chip, spoiler, and an all out eibach suspension kit.

[RAMAN]

Import a V35 Skyline (its the japan-only big brother of the 350Z) and totally turn it into a fire-breathing nismo monster?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the V35 Skyline be the Infinity G35 coupe for the U.S market with slight differences in specs? :?

[5.7 V10]

TVR Tuscan S. Cascade Copper w/black interior + carbon wheels and a Carbon can exhaust.. It would look exactly like this one.. :D

The f355 goes EASILY for more than 90 grands , a spyder can fetch up to 130 ( us dollars)


EDIT --- sorry i didnt read the full topic about 60 grands in quid , so 100 grands is 60 quid , so you can get a F355 :D

Hell yeah. Still thinking of the RS3, but a second hand RS4 is the same as a RS3 (35k) Ohhhhhhh I love dreaming. Pretty certian my next car will be an Audi though. I love the idea of an RS4 'Avant' because of the bikes I cart about.
