£100K Garage: James Kidder
PHer likes his current car so much he's included another one in his dream £100K spend!
Previously Owned: Nissan R32 GT-R x2, Nissan R33 GT-R, Toyota Supra, Honda S2000 x2, Porsche 924, Nissan S15 Silvia, BMW E36 M3 Evo, BMW E39 528i and& 540i, Range Rover Classic, Lexus LS400 x2, Volvo 850 T5, Mini Cooper S R53, Ignis Sport, Stagea and other things...
Currently Owned: Honda NSX, Mercedes C200 W202, 1989 CBR250R
On the shortlist: Cheap S13 Silvia / 180SX or R33 GTST for fun track stuff.
Cost: £34,500
Balance: £65,500
Why I chose it: "Owning one currently, I can't imagine not having it. The noise, handling... Its just my perfect car."
Ferrari 360
Cost: £46,500
Balance: £19,000
Why I chose it: "It's not red and it's manual. I've got a thing for 360s. Having never owned an F-car, its up there on my wishlist being fairly modern yet driver focused. Oh, something about the noise of these with a after market pipes too..."
Cost: £5,250
Balance: £13,750
Why I chose it: "Test drove one of these a few years back, only didn't buy it because the seller and I disagreed on the final sale price! I then bought an S2000 instead... Genuinely like the headlights and is actually my favourite out of the Porsche lights. I'm definitely on my own here but fine with that. Cheap enough to drive everywhere with that flat-six noise, six-speed box and roof down. Yes please!"
Nissan Skyline R33 GTST S2
Cost: £3,295
Balance: £10,455
Why I chose it: "Cheap fast track turbo giggles. Knowing a lot about Skylines, I know that they are mechanically superb and can take a beating, especially in near stock form like the above looks to be."
Cost: £10,000 [Cheeky - it's in fact for auction and this is a clickbait price... Ed.]
Balance: £455
Why I chose it: "If I'm going to waft and cruise, V12 turbo power for me please. I was close to buying one of these ruinious cars a while back but end the end I didn't... Oh the pity. I'm not actually that scared about things breaking because they inevitably will. This one says FSH which is nice though having a good mechanic in the real world as I do now, I'm not scared about buying anything (even stuff with zero history) as long as I get a quick inspection done by him. I've bought some properly internet-says-no stuff before."
