Ideas for £8-10k

[Rob13]

My mate currently has an RX8 and is thinking about chopping it in for something different. He would preferably want something which isnt a hot hatch and is no older than 10 years old but I'm really struggling to match the performance and level of comfort. He's thought about a Mini Cooper S but thats sort of heading in the hatch direction....

Any ideas? Unfortunately Elise's, VX's & Caterham7s are out of the equation due to the comfort factor....

E39 M5?

If he's got an RX-8 i'm assuming he's not fussed about fuel costs

Not really within reason. Its more running costs (i.e parts) that have him worried. I offered him all sorts of exotic classics which he baulked at.

Mx5 is defo out of the window. He gave me stick for mine.

Judging by the amount of fked RX-8s on the classifieds/ebay/auto trader i'd be worried as well

So, what does he want then? How many seats, mpg, modern, classic?
