Not what car... What v8 for 10-16k....

[Dez335]

I have just changed workplace so no longer need a long distance cruiser. So a v8 as I have always wanted one and I am at my whits end trying to decide.

[Krikkit]

TVR. Or were you thinking of something more sensible?

[Dez335]

More reliable still need to get to work.. .. Also bit of civilised features be nice...

[MissChief]

M5?

[Leins]

Merc 500E

[Dez335]

M5 I hadn't thought of. Do they still appear in the classifieds in decent nick?

[Bear Phils]

C5 Corvette?

[Luke.]

Cayenne?

[Scoticus]

XKR
XJR
TVR
Range Rover
M5
several mercs
Vaxhall VXR

Or you could buy something less civilised and go american, if thats the case theres nearly an endless list

[David A]

Maserati, 3200 or 4200 (likely more reliable)

[BUG4LIFE]

Monaro or Mustang defo

[Dez335]

I will be coming from 335d so would be nice to have a comparable spec.

Such as? Help us out here.

E39 M5 is worth looking at, as is Jag XJR/XKR.

Quality of the interior is a big thing I hate squeaks and rattles I guess that rules out the TVR

[Naddy786]

Mercedes Benz C55 AMG perhaps? A peach of a car and they normally come fully loaded with all the toys as standard.

[irocfan]

some Yank metal....

[300bhp/ton]

So a dull and dreary interior is what you are after then?
