Following the conversation they had on top gear about big money cars going for peanuts; what car would you fancy?

I'm talking about a big, comfortable, barge-like executive mobile.

Budget of around £25k

I think i'd have to go for something like this...

Around £80,000 brand new (5 years ago).
Its lost an average of £11,200 a year on depreciation... ouch

Neither an m3 CSL or a triumph are big comfy barges.

I was looking at 7 series and a8's there but the mercs seem to be best bet.

He didn't ask what car do you like this hour, he asked what big comfy barge would you choose.

A little over budget, but cool

Rover 75 is a great car for the money and the 2.0 diesel is a BMW engine

E 55 / CLS 55 / CL are bargains. CL have been for a while, even more so now along with the other two.

That Arnage surprised me as well. That's no money at all considering PH also has similar looking cars for twice that and later ones for more than three times it.

Fukin hell so theyr is,didnt look at the pics in the link.Standard non brabus only has 2 each side,which looks alot more subtle compared to that.
