just seeing what 2nd hand sports car people would have for around 30-35k?
only rules : gotta be 2/3 door
not a 911
has to be faster then a 2.7 cayman
(just waiting for the 1st post to be 911 now
)
£35k means almost anything is possible to some extent only rules : gotta be 2/3 door
not a 911
has to be faster then a 2.7 cayman

Guess it would depend what you wanted it for, as in just a sunny day toy and open air experience or if its to be used for touring and hooidays too.
So it means this:
CATERHAM R400 SV 2.0 DURATEC 2009 (2009)
4,200 miles £31,995

Could be just as viable as this:
FORD MUSTANG GT500 (2007/07)
6,700 miles £30,995
5.4 SUPERCHARGED 500bhp

Or even this:
Alfa Romeo Montreal (1973)
50,031 miles £19,000

Some wouldn't say that all of the above are "sports cars" but its just a list of suggestions.

a nice selection! thank you.
been looking at the 355 a lot, but keep crapping myself with the possible maintenance costs! could maybe afford the car end of this year, but would be a bit painful spending 5k a year on it before fuel etc!!
Then possibly an older, potentially more fragile car isn't for you.been looking at the 355 a lot, but keep crapping myself with the possible maintenance costs! could maybe afford the car end of this year, but would be a bit painful spending 5k a year on it before fuel etc!!
Would it be your only car?
How many miles would it cover in an average year?
Do you want a weekend toy or something you can use everyday if necessary?

limited miles, probably 5k
a mix of both to be annoying

Oops didn't look at the interior shots, just thought it looked good from the outside and was a bit different. Thats not worth £35k in my book.
So OP, something flash, faster than a cayman and that can be used every day if necessary.
Right, slow at work today so I will have a think.
