My gearbox has exploded in my 2012 l322 and while I will drop it and replace it the time has come to accept that it is not reliable enough to be my daily driver.

Other half drives an Octavia vrs estate so we have a bigish car, and I plan on keeping the Range Rover once I have time to get it running, particularly for winter use. I’m wanting something that will be a fun car, and be reliable enough for me to do a commute once or twice a week.

Max budget 22.5k. Although happy to spend less!

I’ve been looking at a Golf R, but open to ideas.
 
Not driven Golf R but from what I’ve heard there’s better driver cars.

How about a V8 like B7 RS4, Jaguar XFR or Lexus ISF?

Or Can probably get a Cayman or Boxster S 987 for that money too which will be more agile

Fun can for me would be RWD and no roof. You’d get a decent looking 987.1 Boxster/Cayman 3.4 or a 987.2 2.9 for your cash. You need to spend a tiny bit more for a 987.2 3.4, but not much!


And if you don’t mind the mileage:

V8 m8


Red is the fastest colour
Also had rod bearings done
