best fun different car for £1000??

[callywally18]

Hello everyone,

With christmas coming up and the possibility of getting a bit of money, I was thinking what would be the best way to spend around £1000 on a car?

something a bit different that when you got in it, had a bit of a sense of occasion, something fun, not your usual every day car.

i was thinking something like an old porsche, and old jeep for a bit of off roading, any other ideas ??

thanks !

Porsche 924.

Rover 200 BRM.

Any number of older BMWs.

None will be immaculate or 100% reliable but there's plenty of fun out there for a bag.

I suppose they're pretty common now but a MK1 MX-5? BMW E36 Coupe?

Are you still going to be using it as a car or is this purely as a secondary car to a daily?

solely a second car, i currently have an 08 alfa spider, but this is going and getting a VW CC company car, so wanted something cheap and different as i think i may get a bit bored of a cc.

Not different at all, but you really should give a Ford Puma a go. It made me start to enjoy driving again!

Alfa 166 while you still can

Yep. Just watch for rust and make sure it doesn't clonk too badly. Nifty, capable yet different off roader.

I picked up a Nissan Pulsar GTI-R for £1150.
