No, not even close.

Ok they can look pretty good with the right alloys I won't deny. But most beautiful. Nope, nope, nope. hehe

But then, we are all different. biggrin

BTW - do you mean the entire list?? or any specific cars from it, as your thread title says CAR, not CARS??

You want to change the alloys on all of them?

I think the Alfa 164 is lovely, and you'd definitely get one of those for £4k or less. That's if you can find one that hasn't disintegrated. smile

The Karmann Ghia is a beautiful car. But trying to buy one for £4k which is not mostly made of Isopon P38 is a job for a very patient person.

Don't know about beautiful, but I'd suggest a Spit is bloody pretty for that budget.

I cannot agree that the mr2 is beautiful , more purposeful with an attractive look.

Possibly a Lancia Gamma ?

Big fan of mk2 MR2's, but much as I like them I think pretty is a more suitable description than beautiful. I do think an RX7 in the right colour is beautiful though.

I'd describe that design as shonky, not beautiful laugh

I often wonder where this is now.... A UK model too. Would I buy it back for £4k? Yes.

Could just about get a Jag XK for £4k with a bit of haggling, that's got to be up there.

It does have a certain grace. Moreso than the purely utilitarian form of the 109, for example.
