Better?
Even if you only want it for posing, still terrible MPG. That's all i was saying.
You did know someone suggested a Camaro 5.0L V8 on page one, right?Even if you only want it for posing, still terrible MPG. That's all i was saying.
An Audi is a perfect blank canvass for a 20 year old who wants to turn heads. I wouldn't myself, but i'm not going to judge others 'McDonalds carpark' posing exploits

"Owl for sale, real Headturner"
Twit!Actually i've got an owl joke, but I can't use it until 2/8/20
Did you know that owls don't go "towit towo"
Apparantly the female? owl goes "towit" and the male? owl will respond with "towo" so you are in fact hearing 2 owls. It could of course be the other way round.
Should have put this in the useless facts thread.
As you were.

What about an Elise? The series 2 cars look reasonably exotic and cost pennies to run. There are plenty of cosmetic & performance mods available for them too.
Not the best sounding cars in the world but they can be improved with the right exhaust system.
For < £10K? Be lucky to get a decent series 1 in budget.Not the best sounding cars in the world but they can be improved with the right exhaust system.

It must be true then. I heard it on Radio 2 and thought it was a wind up.

I can't think of any headturning cars at the moment. Maybe the new Subaru/Toyota that comes out, but other than that they're all just standard stuff. A Porsche Boxster could be headturning if it has the sport kit on and in the a bright colour - maybe speed yellow or guards red.
sadly the 90s cars of celicas, MR2s, and whatever else used to grab attention don't seem to have stayed on in manufacturers models. if you want something cheap then this could be up your street:

Jeez, i was just pointing out that they are crap on fuel. I never said he couldn't buy one, or that going fast while using next-to-no fuel was the only reason for ever buying any car ever.
Although, since you mention it, i don't recall seeing the OP saying fuel wasn't a concern, his last car was LPG'd.
Anyway, pointless, it was just a passing comment about a car i have some experience with.
Just winding you up Doogz. TBH the OP is so vague in what he wants that pretty much any information could be useful.Although, since you mention it, i don't recall seeing the OP saying fuel wasn't a concern, his last car was LPG'd.

How cool are you?If you're not cool: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/3478329.htm

Not sure what insurance would be like for the former, but the latter could work on a classic policy.

Admittedly, there's a 4 year hole in the service history but they're hardly complex machines, it wouldn't bother me to the same degree as it would with some other cars.

This is the answer
Audi A4 Cabriolet - V6 engine for noise, good looks for headturning, cheap enough to buy and run, will make girls want to have sex with you.
HTH.
@ OP piston heads isn't the best place to ask this question as its full of fat bald middle aged men
for example you will get replies like this
most of the people on here would feel uncomfortable and insecure in anything flashy since they have become miserable old gits and thus hate any youngsters that they see being what they wish they could be.

Haha the 3 series is one of the biggest selling cars, you will look exactly like everyone else.
But in reality you wont look like every other middle aged fat bald miserable 3 series driver. how many 20 year old do you see in a 3 series? not many a 3 series at 20 is cool a 3 series when your middle aged is not so cool.most of the people on here would feel uncomfortable and insecure in anything flashy since they have become miserable old gits and thus hate any youngsters that they see being what they wish they could be.

A 3-series, is not a head turning car.
He might not look like a bald middle age man driving a 3-series, but that's irrelevant, since no-one will be turning their heads to look, as he'd be in a 3-series, scourge of the motorways
I'm with Doogz. Nobody will look. Nobody A 3-series, is not a head turning car.

Not even the Police.

'Headturning'
c.f. 'Appealing to lowest common denominator'
Go for a bimmer, mate. Mint, innit.
Facelift 330i/d M-sport. £2-5K, high mileage, not bad on insurance. Sounds good in 330i form, looks like any other car but has a BMW badge, goes fast. c.f. 'Appealing to lowest common denominator'
Go for a bimmer, mate. Mint, innit.
Most women will not know the difference between this and a £30K car. The interior is good, all the toys.
