Post your new car here

Well, the Jag is on its way, and I have replaced it with a new 313bhp BMW 335d xdrive msport saloon. A few months ago I was toying with another V8 powered something or other but in the meantime we have decided to move house so in return for upsizing the house, I have agreed to downsize the car... The BMW does 0-62 in 4.8 seconds though so no slouch... Haven't got any pics yet but will post some as soon as I can.

My first real post on here.
Have finally, after 3 years of having to drive a horrible VW polo 1.2 12v, upgraded to this:
VERY happy with the car. build quality is great and the drive is fantastic. My first diesel and safe to say you cant tell its a diesel!
Very nice! I have a black estate with black wheels and they are great cars! Good choice! Love the colour of yours!Have finally, after 3 years of having to drive a horrible VW polo 1.2 12v, upgraded to this:

Well just finished a 3 month ban for speeding on the M6 toll... time to get a slow sensible car! After waiting more than 3 months for build/delivery finally collected the big old barge today! MUCH slower than the M5, should keep me with a clean license..... Sad to see the M5 go though 
Long time lurker, never posted pictures of cars on here, not up to the standard of the M power or the AMG's but its a rare hot hatch. May be the AMG/M Power can be the next car if i can get it past the other half.
Originally from up North, but am now a Southern Monkey with Northern roots.
Quick car history: VW Polo, Renault Clio, Vauxhall Corsa, Renaultsport Clio 182, Renaultsport Clio 197 FF Cup, Reanaultsport Megane 250 Cup, VW Polo 1.2 Match - purchased to move down to the South coast and buy a house, Renaultsport Clio 200t Cup.
Had the 200t for six months or so and am loving it, always brings a smile to my face, the gear changes in race mode are immense just disappointing yo need it in race mode to get the quick changes. Was a bit dubious about the liquid yellow paint, but I do actually really like it and do enjoy looking at it once cleaned, it is a really interesting colour.

So, I picked this up on Saturday, went to the P&J show at Beaulieu yesterday, so some might have seen it there...
Everyone loves a V8 and I've always been in to the Japanese rear wheel drive thing...I just never thought I would be able to mix the two, until this came up for sale. I went over my original budget, but needless to say, the sound alone is well worth it! The Lexus V8 is not overly powerful (approx. 260-270bhp), but it is quicker than my M3 was and that was no slouch!
It is actually a really good shell (unlike so many of these), and has full interior so is very practical (how I sold it to the missus!!
). The baby seat does fit in the back and little man loves it! (My missus has a practical car btw)
There's a few bits I want to do to it, it came with the 'Navan' skirts and rear spats which I need to fit, and maybe remove the boot spoiler... but mainly I'm just going to enjoy it.
Some pics...
I'm sure it's going to split opinions on here, but I love it :-)
