A new Peugeot 508 estate… in a dark grey or black

Everytime I’ve seen one I can’t stop staring at the damn thing






I’m not alone am I?

They have a candy red one under main showroom lights towards the road I drive by after work every evening and I think its stunning. I always preferred Peugeot over Vauxhall, Renault, VW etc and the new Peugeots are nice IMHO. Unlike BMW which I was always mad passionate about (have a 4 series) but they are so unappealing these days.

I agree, I’m a bm fan through and through but I’d choose a top spec one of these over a 3 or 5 series touring ,
Takes me back to when the Alfa 159’s came out with the alcantara seats with red piping…

I’ve a long standing problem hankering after completely unaffordable Ferraris, but have been suffering a bit lately with the Maserati MC20. It just looks so right…



I’m even kidding myself it would be much more sensible to compromise and get a still wholly unnecessary Lotus Emira…

958 series Cayenne in V8 GTS spec. I have a terrible habit of looking for cars I know I won't be able to afford for a few years then trying to guess how much cheaper they will be when I can finally afford them!! I detested these cars when they were new, ugly, profligate, pointless, but now I really, really want one. Go figure.

Both terrific looking cars, the Emira in particular really doing it for me at a not absurd price point.

I would undoubtedly kill myself in it but what a hell of a way to go!

spurred on by another thread on here I can't help looking at these:




I know I'll never buy one but...

Wallowy, slow, heavy, LHD. Not for me, but all power to you!

I saw this in the flesh while it was in the factory being built. I managed to score a private tour of the place with a friend of a friend. The Swordfish movie Tuscan was there too! Had a drive out in a 4.5 Cerbera with one of the mechanics who scared the pants off me!

I think they look fantastic. I'd be really tempted if they weren't so damn expensive and the reviews a bit scathing of both how it drives, the gearbox and how intrusive the stop/start is.

I've recently discovered they do a JDM only VW Golf GTI estate complete with tartan trim, which naturally sent me down the Jap import / auctions rabbit hole of weird & wonder stuff they have over there.

Mustang GT. Love the idea of one and I probably will get one if I ever get rid of my Cayman S.

Ast if the N/A V8's and a manual at that. Future classic.

I reckon I could see myself going that route in the not too distant future when I get bored of my next car (Boxster) or when it explodes. That or an F TYPE.

I'm having a real thing for the Ferrari Roma at the moment. Neighbour's son in law has one and it's gorgeous.

Sadly not a purchase that is in my immediate future...

The new Spider is even worse. Woof.
