RE: £100k Garage: Alex March
Saturday 10th October 2015
Name: Alex March
Previously owned: Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk2, BMW E30 325i Sport convertible, BMW E36 328i Sport, MG Midget, BMW E46 M3, Audi A4 1.9TDI Avant, Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk5, Porsche Boxster S (986)
Currently owned: Audi B6 S4 Avant and a 50 per cent stake in a BMW E36 328i Sport track day car with a friend
On the shortlist: "BMW 650i, BMW 335i, Volkswagen Golf R32, Audi S3... or if I can justify it to myself a BMW E92 M3 or Mercedes C63 AMG Estate"
Porsche 911 GT3 (997)
Cost: £71,950
Balance: £28,050
Why I chose it: "I want to keep my garage to just two cars, and don't want to spread the £100K too thinly. I don't really need a daily driver, and could keep my Audi S4 for load lugging, tip runs and so on. This would be my toy. I've loved 911s ever since my godfather took me out in his when I was a kid. I can't think of much better than taking this out on the weekend for a blast along some great roads. I could also use it for the occasional track day if I wanted. It is also something I could keep forever, as I think it will age very well. I particularly love this colour combination."
Maserati Quattroporte
Cost: £25,990
Balance: £2,060
Why I chose it: "This would be my comfortable cruiser. I just love these, and have done for as long as I can remember. I think this is a particularly good colour combination. It would be perfect for weekends away or road trips. Engine noise is a really important factor for me, and these sound fantastic, even when you're just pottering around or in traffic. For me, a perfect complement to the GT3."

Just two cars for Alex, but they're two pretty damn good ones!
