mkirby Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Been thinking of sending my company car back and getting the car allowance so been doing a few sums and i think i might just buy a crappy vectra deisel for nipping on longer journeys and buy something really nice. Not sure if the 300zx will come into the equation but if i get something that gives me the same buzz then maybe?? So come on what would you buy?? So far ive come up with a R34 GTR and a Porche 996 cab?? Also to add it will be used now and again for customer visits so nothing really silly Just sick of handing over stupid amounts of tax when i might as well get my company to pay me to have a nice car Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 350Z with all the bells on? Facelift this year. Latest Diesel rep mobiles are damned fine. BMW/VAG/Merc engines are fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrew7 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 TVR T350 should fill all those empty spaces in your trousers (and overalls!)!... Monaro?.. umff.... Noble..... Masarati..... Ferrari 456 GT (may have to stretch your budget).... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkirby Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 I think the main problem with going down the R34 route is i would have to get rid of my 300zx to fund it as a decent one is still pushing £40k!! Must admit i do love the nobles but needs to house a kid!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkirby Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 not necessarily and they are AWESOME to drive a friend is selling his Red R34 and i would snap it up but its a little out of my budget as he wants £55k but the spec is amazing maybe he will reduce it by £15k and let me trade my 300zx in as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 M3 Csl? there is just no point to that car as it offers no more acceleration to 60 and is not worth the price, all the CSL proves is you have more money than sense to spend an extra 20k i think it is roughly? on a car that does the same job as the normal M3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
