Will I regret it?
Discussion
Once I've put her through an MOT and got her taxed I'm thinking about selling my MR2 Turbo. What I would like to replace her with is a car I used to own - an e46 330ci.
As much as I love driving the MR2 on the right day, it turns out I like creature comforts a little more than I thought I did. I'm missing things like Bluetooth and a decent stereo (yes, I know these could be retrofitted to my car) and although the MR2 is a bit of an event when you drive it - engine right behind your head, turbo and recirc valve doing their thing - what I'm also craving is that creamy 6 cylinder sound.
So I'm thinking, once she sells I should have around £4k max (with a little bit of savings) to spend on something different. Will I regret getting rid? I've read that many people do. Should I be going for a car that I've already owned? Or should I be looking at something different? If so, what?
I know, another 'what car' thread, though with a slight twist so let me off. I'm sorry

I would go for something different, not that I can talk after owning 7 cars but only 3 different types. 
There is only one way to get a 6 cylinder sound.. You could always try putting a good radio with bluetooth etc. in the MR2 and see how you get on? You can pick up a brand new CD player with all the bells and whistles for £150-200.
