8K for a car what would you buy

[Cookie]

Just feeling a bit feedup with the whole car thing at the moment.

If you had say £8K what car would you buy (Not a 200sx)

Needs to be modern and a bit sporty.

Lots of cars i like but don't know what i would buy.

Any ideas...

E-class Merc with 3.2litre V6. Maybe even the 4.3.
Put it on 18s and tint the windows.

Nice , but too old for an every day car (sorry to the S13 owners)

I am thinking more of a car that is std and not as such a dedicated sports car.

BWM 3 series.

Maybe a Land rover discovery

8K would get you into a minter W124 E500. 320bhp V8, car handbuilt by Porsche. No squeeks, rattles just power and very tidy handling :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:
