I think the list price is slightly higher than the Sirrocco and loads cheaper than the TT – price list starts at £20,450 – £25,050 for a 200bhp GT with leather etc. Not sure what jap car you would compare it with? S2000 maybe or 300ZX? Both different sorts of cars to me.
I was thinking about iconic Peugeot's rather than just good ones, and they seem to make plenty of good cars these days….
Sorry Scania? Best engines? Should maybes have qualified it by saying best car engines under 2.0ltr. Scania engines might be great, but they don't put them in cars. Always seem a bit noisy too.
And a Boxter looks like it's the wrong way round too…. To me, it isn't a tough choice – a three or four year old Porsche (which everyone would tell me marks me out as someone who wanted a 911 but couldn't afford one) or £27,000 for a basic TT, or maybe a bit less for something (that I think) prettier, rarer, brand new on the market – the residuals might be rubbish but they're not gold plated on the TT too, especially if you haven't got leather, Bose, etc.
