On BMW's I'm affraid to say how ever typical it might be I'd still love a convertible e46 m3 as long as it had a proper gearbox

Easy choice mate....
2wd Saph Cos, just make sure its a solid shell/nice interior. Say 3-4k.
Then spend the rest on the engine/box. Doing the work should save you loads. Reckon you will have a nice 500bhp spec car there 
Go on!

No I wasn't actually! Must just be coincidence LOL!!!
But I know he likes "playing" with his cars, and a Cossie engine is a great one to play with!
Plus I have an un-natural love for them, so I'm biased

No I'm after a 4x4 sierra, no tax or test, for a track day car between me and my mate
Beats taking the corsa and risking doing something big to it. I'm gonna take the corsa a couple of times, then the sierra for the rest of the year.
Set of EBC brakes, konis and some slicks and were off!

''What car shall I get?
What seats shall it have?
What colour should it be?
What exhaust shall I have?
What size should it be?
What should it sound like?
What Reg plate shall I get?
What insurance company shall I go with?
Shall I go fully comp.? on my dad's policy or TPFT?
Shall I drive with the windows down or up? maybe halfway up?
What engine size should I get?
Turbocharged,supercharged or normally aspirated?
What wheels,coilovers,mods shall I do?
Think for yourselves, it helps.''
