I may be wrong, but this is a car based website

996?

Alpina 3 series?

Difficult really as you've already been a bit spoilt by the M3 I would imagine. How about another one but in CS trim?

There's not a lot to touch it in that price range (imo).

Oh and just thought, how much are mk2 Focus RS's going for now?

[reccy with claws]

cheers for the helpful replys. as for people moaning about my question shush!
i think a rs4 is near the 30k mark they are sexy love the v8 sound. has any one had any experience with exige s2's.
ive herd to many horror stories about tvrs.id love a 350 but herd they cos stupid money to run and then to fix.

caterham and loads of change...

If you liked your M3 what about a Z4 M Coupe/Roadster?

Plenty of Pork available for £20k - 996, Boxster, maybe even a 993.

Z4M is a good call! I'd love one personally!

They're not for everyone though. I didn't get on with mine and sold it after a few months. I seem to be in the minority however,

One to test drive for sure.

[useyourdellusion]

Admittedly, I've never driven one but I love what they are about. I just get a good feeling about them for some reason, and they always make me smile when I see one...

its weird isn't it, so many what car threads on a car website.

[reccy with claws]

s2 exige does sound good. wouls it feel quick compaired to my m3. z4m c with csl wheels look good and sould be as quick as mine. t350 are a nightmare for servicing arent they and they break down?
what i thought would be ok aswell but it looks like its well out of my price range. is a merc slk amg v8 roof down must sound amazing.

How much are you willing to spend on running costs, there are Aston Martin DB7s, Bentleys, lots of TVRs, Jaguar XKRs, Porsches and then there is the stuff 300bhp/ton will recommend.

20k will buy quite a lot of car, but the size of the repairs bills varies massively.

348 for just over 20k...Christ that's tempting

seems to be quite a few knocking about for that price these days...though they aren't quite in season yet, which obviously depresses prices somewhat
