Whether you're thinking of changing next week, next year or only some indefinite time in the future, what do you realistically expect your next replacement purchase to be?

I've no plans to shift the MX-5 in the foreseeable future but when I do, I'll be on the lookout for one of these.


Not sure what the Golf will be replaced with but expect it'll be a 7-seater of sorts. This perhaps?

I expect my next car to have a fold-away roof, RWD, and be a small sportscar. Not yet decided on which particular car in that category to get though.

I really want a Honda S2000 so I'm working on getting one of those, howver other options include a Z4, MX5, or an outside chance of a Focus ST

MR2 turbo, to go as a weekend car with the Focus staying as a fun-ish daily, this will hopefully enable me to get thrugh a couple of other cars on my to-own list whilst not compromising the enjoyment of my get to work Hoon.

Although the Scooby BRZ is looking promising as a Focus replacement in 3-4 years.

I've not driven one yet, but have done around 400 miles in a 986 boxster and loved it, can only imagine a cayman is similar but better.

Just picked up a Clio 182 for my daily driver, and will be swapping my X5 for a newer/faster one in the summer.

As long as the current car stays well, I'm hoping to get a Boxster in 2 years, probably a 986. Or I may be silly and get an E46 M3 or similar and live with an empty bank account smile

Nope, they don't come up too often, but there's usually one or two on Nutz. This one's a Mk2 RS, and from pictures it looks immaculate. Fingers crossed it's as good as I hope.

I've got a thing for an early 996 to use as a daily driver and only car for a long time. Until depreciation does not matter anymore. We'll see.
