A mate is trying to decide what car to get next, his ideal car would be an RS4 but that's never going to happen soon is it :P

Top of the list is an ST220, the later model with the 6 speed box. We've seen 53 plates with say 30-40k on the clock, 6 speed box for 10k and under.

Now what else is there of this ilk? Old S4 would be cool, but the worry of those turbos going pop (as they do) isn't nice.

Only does 6k or so a year so mpg isn't that important, although it will be used got some long journeys quite often.

Not huge amount of other criteria, some decent mid range poke I think is what he's mostly after, but somethign with a respectable 0-60/100 would be good :)

330 sport saloon/A4 3 litre are also nice, but over budget.

The problem is, the ford seems to offer a hell of a lot for it's age/cost, although I know it'll deprciate pretty nastily.

Larger saloon would be preferable to a Civic/Clio sized hatch :)

Showed him the thread and, oh dear...

"TW Fox sounds like the man" :P

Corrected him saying yes he's the old man trapped in a young boys body :)

Tell him to stop being a big girls' blouse and buy an Elise.

sadly he needs a bigger car for stuff he does, he's got a golf atm and even that could do with being bigger lugging stuff around.

a mate had one of these at uni, awesome it was :)
 
He does have a soft spot for Alfas, although whether he'd want 10k in one I don't know, but I wouldn't mind if he turned up in a GTA for us to play in :)
