I've now enrolled on a full time course doing Stonemasonry bowtie.
Whilst thinking of the future ahead, I'm considering of venturing (and working) around the continent for a couple of years should I successfully complete this course. And right now, my current obsession is a decent sized motorhome like a Fleetwood to do it all in.

This'll do -

Quite fancy a TT at the moment...



I've decided as much as I like my new GTD it's a little sensible for a single 24 year old Male, so the next car shall be less practical!

I would like a Porsche Cayman S but i can't help but think I would find one boring. Lotus Exige it is! Happy enough with my Elise at the minute though. Hard to justify the extra for an Exige

Why not something that is fun to drive as well? wink

I've only had my MX5 for a month now but I've already planned my next car & have been dreaming about it in it's (to me) ultimate form.

That but in white with black alloys yum Obviously would be an 86.

But in reality, since I'm not convinced I'd ever be able to commit to a full Rocket Bunny conversion (largely due to financial reasons) I'd go for a Blue/white BRZ with black alloys as I think they look the best in stock form out of the three. Not that the Scion would ever be an option that is.

I have the burning desire to have a massive 4x4 in my life. It will happily meet all my needs, and also outlive the cockroaches during the zombie apocalypse.
I neeeed it!

Question.

If you're in a position to buy a new car, and you're undecided between a boxster, Z4 & E46 M3 should you just save up a bit more to get the car you really want?

No. To save up means wasted time.. . It's why bank loans were invented!

It's a toss up between an Evo X 300 SST or a E55 AMG for me for my next car. Slight differences between the two, E55 is edging it due to the silly amounts of power and the soundtrack. Hmm

In keeping with the slight advantages, fuel economy is better, too. wink

Fuel economy isn't exactly an issue. Both can be converted to gas and I can have the kit from my current car swapped over.

The X is essentially a newer version of what I already own (Galant VR4) with a better awd system, more power as standard with scope for easy tuning but weak points such as the rods on earlier cars. It's more in keeping with my age (28) and love of Japanese cars. Not sure if the boot is big enough for a wheelchair though.

The E55 is bigger and has a lot more toys. Seems to be fairly sturdy aside from the weaklink of the ic pump. 600bhp is possible for an extra £1300-£1500. Boot is more than big enough for my old mans wheelchair but it isn't exactly a car that I can chuck about on the odd countryside hoon.
