Decided to sell my gen 1.5 TT with standard wheels. Cant decide what to get next with a budget of 25-30k. Any ideas?

Decisions decisions. I drove an Exige S 240 last week and would consider one. Very different to the Turbo - basic, not much room, not as fast, but fantastic steering, very nimble, looks great, very cheap to run. Prior to getting a Turbo myself (996), I was after a Noble. So much more involving than the Turbo to drive, though generally takes a bit more looking after. Maserati 4200? They just seem too cheap for what they offer.

You mean very large repair bills fairly often?

We all run that risk. Some are braver than others!

I've had a Maser in the past. It was eye wateringly expensive to run. Have not learned my lesson though as I've had my eye on this which has been for sale for the past 2 years. Crazy asking price but I love this car

Absolutely 100%. I'd follow that until it stopped to have a chat with the driver & compliment him (or her!) on what good taste they have.
