Ok I have sat down and done some maths and realised my 2 cars cost me more to run than my rent a living expenses together. So at the end of the summer I may make a few changes.
I study and live 200 km away from my office and girlfriend, I drive down to the office once per week at around 110mph on a poorly maintained motorway also there is a LOT of snow in the winter
My current cars
Audi TT with quite a few mods and 280 bhp (used 85% of the time) get 28 mpg on the motorway.
Golf V5 with a 2.3 no mods and 170 bhp, around 22mpg on the motorway
My girlfriend is taking the Golf from me so I my options are
1 Keep just the TT
2 Get a 2.7 boxter, around 2002, this would be good because I think I can put my alloys from the TT on it. They cost around £3k with tyres so would be a shame to give them away with the car.
3 Get a 350z (about 2003) (will probably have to sell my watch) – also I don’t know if I can afford run a 3.5
4 get a opel speedster (aka VX220) and mod it a little. This is way to impractical for day to day use so I would probably have to get a old Skoda or Smart car also which would cost nothing to run.
5 Grow up and get a 320d
Anything else I should look at? Are the above actually an upgrade to the TT or are they just a side step or even a step down (boxter)? ?
