400/400 ? Let's be realistic, money down the drain. You don't use it. Maybe you should indeed consider a proper V8 RWD car. Issue is that quite a few cars like the Corvette, Z8, etc are LHD only. Or ever considered an RS4 ?

When I met you and 1mposter mid Nurburgring, you guys were looking for a parkingspot ! Still PMSL when I think of the sight of you hugging the right hand side of the track, Martin stuck up your bumper and both of you going over the top at the Carrousel Sorry mate, muppeting the tread. Back on subject: How about a BMW Z8 ? There is a 2001 with 40K miles on Autotrader at 56K.

Nah, if you get an M3, you want an original E30 M3 Evo, with the 235bhp 4-cilinder. Cult car Could be an idea though. Along the same lines: Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 Evolution 2... If you thought the scoob had a big wing... Look at this : Evo 2This car is brand-new ! For 20K, you can have a used car thoug with 30-35K miles on the clock.

Got it, Spike !! An MVS Venturi ! They were a small manufacturer of sportscars up to a few years ago. Hand built and great reputation on track. Looked for one and this one is A GT400: MVS adUnlike TVRs etc, these are reasonably reliable. The GT400 was in fact a car built for GT racing. They made 15 roadgoing cars. 430 bhp and 1050 kgs... You wanted straight line performance ???

Here you got one that looks like an F40 I just love the entire rear opening to show the enige. And with that power/weight ratio, it probably goes like one too. Fraser would need close to 550bhp to get anywhere close on a dry, straight road

Why not ? You were parking a far more desirable car on your street: the Porsche. This one is LHD, so should attract much less attention. And no way someone can nick it without getting noticed. There's only 15 around Go on, Spike, you only live once !!!

Quick translation of the ad:
First reg: 7/94. One of the 15 built for road use. 22000kms (so 13750 miles), no accidents, 2nd owner, 430bhp for 1050kgs, has aircon, black leather inside.
