10 Grand Burning a hole.

[Somesayhis]

I have just sold one of my old cars due to lack of use since buying my E60 M5. After putting a wee bit aside for a rainy day, I have 10k sat here tormenting me. I am really leaning towards a 3dr Cosworth of even a Escort Cosworth. I know at that price they will need some work. What other options are my Cosworth tinted glasses blocking out for me and my 10k?

TVR Chimera, 4 litres of V8 goodness.

+1
Forget the Cossie, sometimes hero's are best left as just that, in my experience.

I do like. An old friend had one years ago. I can't see me in one of those unfortunately. Plus, my bad I should of mentioned it needs to have 4 seats. Sorry. Not worth the ear ache.

Monaro. 5.7 or at a stretch, 6.0 litres of pushrod V8 goodness.

Bentley Turbo R?

[FreeLitres]

+1 for TVR.

I couldn't sleep last night knowing that I was taking Tiv out for a drive this morning.

Every other car does not compete unless you are talking about £100k supercars.

Trust me.

Ok then, about 10k will get you in a Cerbera.

Fits the bill perfectly, practical but not sensible.

Only £450 over budget. Looks like a good buy.

I like that silver one. Plus there might even be a bit of bargaining due to the impending service. Keep going though chaps I am liking all the suggestions

Thanks for that hit on my internet history (/tag/dead-midget-prostitutes/). lol. Yeah thinking about it, I am 6 foot 3 and the kids are long-lings too. What about? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3313424.htm . This would mean dipping into the housekeeping tin.

Apologies, didn't realise it was that.
I thought everyone on PH uses private browsing
Delta looks super

[LukeSi]

How about a Maserati?

About the same price as the Lancia.

[Somesayhis]

No worries, yes the Delta is clean. However since posting that and showing SWMBO the car, I have been reliably informed that no "dipping in tins" will be occurring. Small hissyfit in the kitchen was in order. Back to 10k firm.
