Burble Burble Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 A4's are nice but I think the 330D beats it (bits for money). I think the R33 appeals to me (although I'd have to get authorisation from the boss - Clare). I'm lucky enough to have a supra and an R33, the 33's more practical if you need the rear space, but the mpg will still be the low 20's - 23, 24. If you are considering them go on to http://www.skylineowners.com, it's a free site and you'll get an idea of what's available on the "cars for sale" section. They are a good bunch and will help.

If you are considering them go on to http://www.skylineowners.com, Thanks for that. I joined that site last night and had a look around. (Off topic I much prefer the appearance of the Supra forums). http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/333078.htm I saw that last night. You do seem to get a lot for your money don't you. A single turbo Supra http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=230220239341&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=013 LOL - I’m surprised that it hasn’t gone already mate. Looks a great car. Personally if I were going for a Supra Jamesy’s would be my sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 For £10K you can have 2 very nice stock Supras, or one very overpriced one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 MKII Aristo VVTi? Should get a nice late one for that money. Or just a Lexus GS300, could probably get a 2003-2004 for 10k? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I would be tempted by a sensible tdci mondeo for that money. i know it isn't likely to beat the r32 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHanky Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I know I am biased now but I would and have gone for the Honda Integra Type R (DC5). Or you could go for an EP3 Civic Type R and have 3k in your back pocket. These are also great fun and you can get a pretty decent one for 7k now (40k miles).

When you say EP3 are you refering to the new model or other one before it? Sounds childish but the person who now has the R32 used to have the old Civic (and we compete on statuts symbols - which i know is a sad thing to do but he annoys me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrHanky Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Oooh pretty They seem a nice compromise between performance and practicality. Thanks Thanks for clarifying with a picture Stef. I had one a few years ago and really loved it. Has fairly decent space in the back and is quite quick. Love where the gear stick is mounted too. You will get anywhere between 250 - 300 miles on a tank of petrol and servicing costs are not too bad. All in all I think they are great value for money. OK I was slightly off when I said 40k miles for 7k. Its more like 7.5k to 8k for that sort of mileage and A/C http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/361591.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
