An immaculate W124 E500/500E and the remainder to keep it in fuel and maintenance.

For £35k, you will be on the lower end of the c63amg market.

So you might just get into a 40k miles 2008 car.

It is interesting that no one mentioned the E-class E350 CDI coupe. I wonder why.

I reckon the CLS500 maybe worth a look in...

C63. ouch on costs ;-) Fab motor though!

I run one and it has cost no more than my previous CSL, e90 m3 or Z4M Coupe.

But then again, I don't drive it during the week.....its a weekend car.

Yep, a perfect W124 E500/500E and save yourself 15-20k. Other than that as mentioned a C63.

Agreed, £34k of petrol gets you a long way. wink

OP said min 4 seats, I know the 996 technically does fit this criteria, but only if you have no legs or are 2ft tall (speaking from experience of the most cramped and uncomfortable 10 minute car journey of my life smile )
