EVO: Best drivers cars for £20K (12 cars)

[Just_me]

Most inspired drive for the money and good for every day use.
The cars are: Honda NSX, TVR Cerbera, Nissan Skyline R33, Maserati 3200GT, Lotus Exige, BMW M5, Ford Escort Cosworth, Toyota MR2, Golf GTI (brand new), Mazda MX-5, Impreza WRX, Renault Clio 182



New or used: The £20K Question
We choose a dozen brilliant driver's cars on a £20,000 budget and head off in search of the most inspired drive for the money.

Round one will comprise a long day's driving on B-roads and test track, at the end of which we'll choose six cars to go on to round two, in the Welsh mountains. But which ones will go through?

The two finalists are BMW M5 and TVR but only one can win. The winner is:



The M5 is just too complete, too sensible, too fast and too brilliant to be ignored. Of course it's the pragmatist's choice. But for once logic is on our side. For when it leads to a car blessed with a chassis that gives the driver endless option and never runs out of ideas and the creamiest 400Bhp V8 built, we'll happily put on our sensible shoes and head for the best roads we can find, over and over again....

For those who want to read the 22 pages and more about the cars, go buy the latest number of EVO.

Now my question for you. Which of these cars do you choose and why?


What do I choose?
Well, I choose M5, is practical, fast and beautiful. If I could choose two cars I would choose TVR Cerbera but its not a very practical and I can only choose one car, so give me the BMW M5.
