If you had 25k to spend on a car (for everyday use) what would you choose and why? :P

Vauxhall VXR8.  You can get 07 models for that price.  Considering I only do about 50 miles a week now it might as well be a FUN 50 miles.

5 year old M5?

I believe the reasons are obvious.

Yep, that a skyline would thrash it :P

R34, with a gas conversion

Could there be a more perfect daily driver?

Big boot, 5 seats, and no car will even come close to it on corners. (Except for an R32 skyline)

Good suggestions all round!

The R34 looks too "muscle car" though, I think it would attract a bit too much unwanted attention!

5 year old M5.... id rather have a 1-2 year old M3 me thinks!

Audi TT - Are these still considered hairdresser cars??

Vauxhall VXR8 - Its a vauxhall at the end of the day... and quite an old design now...

Audi A4 - Nice but a tad boring, same with the 330d really....


Maybe im too fussy?

I love the A5 but the 3 doors is a bit unpractical, and its quite a bit over 25k.... I might just be boring and get a mondeo st tdci [used] as I really cant decide...

I do about 300-400 miles per week, so it needs to be able to do over 35mpg when driven lightly, boot needs to be able to hold at least 2 suitcases. Also id rather it wasnt "too" old, in warranty if possible...


Ive searched autotrader high and low but nothing shouts out to me... I like the ford mustang but again would attract too much attention...


Bring on more suggestions, I must be missing something?? I think the problem with 25k is that its at the high end of the "normal" cars [i.e top spec mondeo would be close to 25k new] but bottom of the "slightly better" cars.... ARGH!

Lexus is always a good choice, comfy, good build quality, comfy.

One of the M5s Tiff Nedel powerslided in top gear so many years back would be mint!

Audi TT, a good one for 25K would be a top of the range one, if it were a few years old and itd look and be mean. And good build quality.

Jag X type maybe ?
