Hooray, it's a what car thread!

[12lee]

I'm in the mood for something new. I would like it to:

- project zero image (whether that be flash, poor, scruffy, etc)
- be able to make rapid progress (250bhp+)
- raise a smile and be nimble (rwd or 4wd and probably light)

Age and fuel not a concern. Reliability, pace and Q-ness is.

Ideas?

Morgan aero 8 or similar?

Budget?

Also what type of vehicle are you after, as in how many seats, how practical, how hardcore or extreme, do you need it to haul anything and lastly what sort of annual mileage and what types of roads is it to be used on?

Oh, and do you object to modified or custom built cars, or is it strictly factory stock specification?

How light? Jag XJR light in comparison to other similar sized cars? Or French hatchback tinfoil light?

Debadged M3?

BMW 130i.

A Mazda 6 MPS should tick all boxes if you want it to be understaed but you havn't indicated budget??

How odd. I entitled this thread 'Which car has the most Q for up to £12k?' and the title changed to what you see. Seats/shape/doors don't matter. Q does.

How bizarre,

Try this then, you'd get into either a Convertible or Saloon depending on personal preference, but a 4.2 V8 soundtrack, cracking performance and very understaded indeed, even more so if you de-badge it.

Z-Cars Mini maybe. There's also a company that fits a 2.0 supercharged Ford motor to a Morris Minor. If you do some yourself £12k should just about do it.
