But i live in Tenerife and it will get wrecked within months as nobody seems to know how to drive or park...
A slightly dented and battered 60's Mustang is your answer. Or 80's Merc SL. https://www.4starclassics.com/for-sale/bmw-e36-328...

If you go for a Ghibli Cup or Shamal, I’d like to visit, please! Particularly if it’s a Shamal. TIA! The Ghibli is nice, the Shamal is slightly bonkers...
Im not really a Porsche fan boy especially with the endless amounts of ‘restomods’ there are now. But this Tuthill 911k…. Yes please!

Well the only thing you are probably missing in Tenerife is rain! https://www.4starclassics.com/for-sale/bmw-e36-328...

Nobody in the UK seems to know how to drive or park either.
two cars. 458 speciale and perhaps the other end of the spectrum in many ways, a viper GTS.
Building our dream house has put dreams of buying a speciale on hold so trying to decide if I hold out for it in the long term, go for a regular 458 in the mid term or buy the GTS in the short term..
Say what you will about american sports cars, this has been a dream car since I was around 8 years old..

a leggy octavia estate

keep looking at this and tbh it ticks all the boxes for a tip/dog wagon albeit a bit on the leggy side ticks every box with the right toys carplay/xenons and 4wd with a auto box
BUT couldnt bring myself to by from the seller given their somewhat interesting history

Not obsessing so much as pondering how this bizarre situation came about.
This humdrum saloon, re-engineered by Lotus is worth twice what the best car Lotus made at the time.
However:
This humdrum saloon car, with an actual Ferrari engine, and conceived by a company with a performance car pedigree second to none (unlike Vauxhall/Opel) is worth less than half the best car Ferrari made at the time.
But the F355 & Carlton are worth about the same, as are the Thema & a V8 Esprit.
That would be a brave pair of cars to own!

F-type v8.need the prices to drop a bit more but seriously fancy one
A friend has a V8-S. it’s fantastic.Superb VFM at £30k as well, but doubtless they’ll fall further.
I love my Cayman S but the F type is an itch I really think I’m going to have to scratch (when they are a bit cheaper lol)
Reality of the naff small parking spaces at work that are about to get a whole lot worse means small cars only.
So no hot Civic/Golfs etc
Have to stick in the Mini class.
So looking at Cooper S or Swift 1.4t Sport
Both good, Mini the better faster overall car, but the Swift will be much more reliable, more space inside, much less likely to vandalised/stolen.
