Different what car...

[whp1983]

In a world of fairy light audi's and white range rovers with massive alloys. What cars these days have real style and class?

And on a similar note £15-20k budget a car old or new with pure style and class?......

Biggest question is who you want to impress? Most folks will swoon at a white Audi with twinkly lights and huge alloys.

For class I'd say a proper Range Rover with small wheels and a bit of mud up the side. Got to be green or blue rather than black/white. Best worn with a tweed jacket and a pair of Wellingtons. A Bentley Turbo would also be pretty classy in your price point.

When the OP says "these days", I'm not convinced he's asking about 15/25 year old ones!

I like the idea though!

Everything just looks so over done these days.... After e-type, db5 class on a budget. Timeless if you like.

Love a rangey in non bling spec covered in mud, great shout.

A used Ford Mustang GT - I know I'm biased but it really does have the wow factor.

I also think the new Renault Clio in the bright metallic red has it bang on (but not the red interior).

Pick up an earlier model for under £20k.

[jamieduff1981]

A Quattroporte as above, a 4200GT or a DB7.

I don't think there's anything new-ish in that price bracket that isn't the epitome of fur-coat-no-knickers faux prestige to impress the neighbours.

For real class, you need something timeless and with substance. Whether it was actually any good or not is irrelevant. It just has to be beautiful and not attract generic people.

Something classy for 15-20k, not sky's the limit.

For new cars I think a new Range, again with small (!) wheels, dark green or blue, with mud up the side looks very classy. Not chav white or hearse black.

Another one, to me at least, is something like an A6 Avant, or the Allroad, but non-Sline trim/big wheels.

I would say something like this would be bang on the money:

Or Possibly this:

Currently just over budget. £20k new model XJ just around the corner.
