The impossible question

You can get a manual F-Type V6. The gearbox isn't the most inspiring thing by all accounts and there are exactly 3 for sale in the entire country right now.
Certainly worth a test drive of one if you're after a smaller/cheaper car - the running costs are obviously far more sensible than the Porsches, R8s etc that have been mentioned.
With regards to rusting - certainly not an issue I've heard of - even my much older R56 (15 years old) hasn't had any issues
my neighbour has a yellow 850r and it is glorious - not sure that is quite what the doris is after though
hadnt realised that, she loves the shape of the Ftype - and I like jaaaaaags generally
I did briefly consider this but not sure it's really a B road weapon and my experience with fixing Aston's is not cheap...
No way! That's a rare beast!

yep - he doesn't use it much though, kept in the garage - sounds lovely though
other than being a BMW and an Auto - that's ideal

Bloody hell at this rate it sounds like it’ll be easier to find another mrslizard

Could never have one purely because the internal front is so horrid. That big circle in the centre is

If you want a 911 then aim for a 997 Gen 2 S with PDK.

More miles will get you close to your budget, but get it checked out first. Comes with 911 running costs of course, but a good one will look after you. Not super quick by modern standards, not modern tech as 17-18 years old, but still a fantastic car to drive, still special. Boxster too is epic, seek a flat 6 S over a 2.5 flat 4 would be my suggestion.
