Never thought I’d see the day I’d ask for car-buying advice, but here goes:
I’ll be returning to the UK come March, and I would like a car. It’ll be for pleasure mileage only, no commuting or anything of that ilk, and I’m envisaging somewhere around the 4-5000 miles a year mark. Fuel economy is therefore not my major priority. Nor does it need to be able to carry a bike, cos Mrs Flying Ox will be getting some type of do-it-all car that will cover bike duties. Budget is anything under new Focus money, say up to £18,000. 2nd hand only: I don’t want a new car due to depreciation. And it must be powerful. Why? Because.
Current cars on the list are:
Infiniti G35
Nissan Skyline R32/R33/R34
Mazda RX7
Honda NSX
Honda Integra DC2/DC5
TVR Cerbera/Tuscan
Honda S2000
Vauxhall VX220 Turbo
E46 M3
Maserati 3200GT
That should give an idea of the type of car I’m after. Any others I should consider? Any experience of the above?
Cheers.
And for the haters, I’ll save you the effort and do my own “The Flying Ox Has A Tiny, Wizened Penis So Needs A Fancy Dan Car To Compensate”-style tags.
