You've been left £1500.....

[farrendahl]

And the two stipulations given are that you MUST buy a car with it and that it can't be a MX-5. On the meagre budget, what would you get and why?

[devnull]

A 700 quid barge and a couple of hookers. Boobs and a car. Marvellous.

[TheTurbonator]

Porsche 924s or maybe at a stretch a 944 if I could find a nice one. Dad used to have a 924 and we drove all the way to the Spanish south coast in it. Loved that car and I love the way they look.

A whole three minutes before the hookers were mentioned, people are slipping back in the old days that would have been mentioned in under a minute

Pug 205 or a Golf Mk 2 gti.

Neither of them would be a minter at that budget, but I'd have a lot of fun in them all the same.

[SirSamuelOfBuca]

A volvo turbo or another Renault 5 gtt

[Chrisw666]

924, MGF, Puma, 106GTI, the ignis sport I saw yesterday for £1600, 328i.

Renault 5 turbo and 400quid to sort the bits and get it MOT'd.

[Spanna]

Rover Metro + used 1.8 vvc engine + any mods I could afford to make it safer.

[McSam]

Many many perfect E39 540is in there, and almost as many lovely E38 740is! I'd find it hard not to go down that route..

[AndrewW-G]

If you can't get a MX5, how about a Mazda Eunos

Thats a cop out and you know it you cheeky begger

[farrendahl]

For me it would have to be this beasty



The plate alone is worth £1200 and included in the sale. Buy the car for £1250, sell the plate and smile

[kambites]

How much of a car do I have to buy. I'd like to get some Nitron NTR Fast Road dampers for my Elise, please.

I'd second that, preferrably a t-bar at the moment

This. Or maybe an MR2.

Assuming an MX5 is out, of course.

I was busy with aforementioned hookers, hence the delay. One apologises

[V8Triumph]

MGB GT

[C.A.R.]

306 GTi6.

Although it'd probably cost you that much again within 6 months!

Sensible choice would be a Focus ST170 or a MK4 Golf GTI. Not going to set the world on fire though.
