for 2011 im going to buy a modern day classic and convert it to LPG (petrol is just do it for me)

im a fan of wheeler dealer and some of the old modern classics are brill, ive fancied a Merc 190 cossy in the past but yet to get there
ive owned a Renault 5 GT turbo, Lancia HF Turbo, Pug 205 1.9 GTI and others so not going there again

what modern day classic am i missing ?? 5-8 grand bracket

My Abarth 500 is going to make way for a retro new classic (sad but 6k in 13.5 months from new)

so far: 2003 M3, Audi S series most take my fancy, Alfa GTV, even an Audi TT old version

any ideas on here ?? something that im missing

Cheers Tom im more after ideas on a future classic - LPG i'll enquire about that prior to purchasing the new car

im running my Civic Type R EP3 on LPG thus its saving me a fortune and its amazing when you can go 210 miles on £25 instead of £50+ driving becomes enjoyable again, and removing the spare wheel is pretty much the same weight (back in for long distance trips)

Interesting i like the bottom list ive thought about most of them

XK8 ive seen one already LPG'd and fairly cheap might be worth a test drive :-)
