Just thinking.....

Leaving all the obvious Exotica aside for a moment, what £50K car would you think could be parked among said machinery outside this place and manage not to look out-classed?

I'll start procedings by proferring the:

AM Vanquish / DB9
F-355
L322 Range Rover (you could get 2 actually!)
Diablo
Arnage / Continental T (not the Cheshire ones)

Over to y'all

Nico.

Cheapest Diablo I've seen recently was 55K, a nice yellow one if I remember rightly. But thats what would be my choice, if the bloke selling it dropped to 50K

Ferrari 612s are dropping to about that. There's a nice blue 2005 one in the classifieds that would look pretty special.

Left field choices...
Corvette C1.

Viper GTS with plenty of cash left over.

Or as someone mentioned a Sagaris would be a good shout.

A classic Rolls-Royce. Anything from the 30s to the 60s. Loads on offer for under £50,000.

Buy a classic or something 'different' and polish it up. From what I have seen they get much more attention from the public than the usual array of supercars.

Plenty of stuff here (some of it not so 'classic'): http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/price/9/

A classic, either an e type or fiat 500 !

There's often a splendid look old Aston parked there, think it's a DB4

I once actually seen a Renault Spider parked there. And I think they were sold for considerably under 50k new.

Monte Carlo can be a funny place. A Smart convertible might turn more heads than a Ferrari would.

That would do for sure, though I would have went for a Tuscan 2 convertible. More elegant lines, the Sagaris is almost a bit too hooligan mad looking for that corner. Also most people don't know what it is, and it still looks the part after 10 years.


The other option is of course a second hand AM.

Intergrales and Monte Carlo have mixed well in the past, this one certainly wouldn't look out of place (sure some will recognise this car on the pic too)



I did think at first Stratos but I doubt £50k would get you half of one now!
