you must be in the £400's with the spec of scirocoo you're driving surely?

yeh £508 p/m you think thats a bad price?

Thought I'd drag this topic up again as I never changed car in the end, but am due a change in 3 months time. Ultimately decided on a Audi A5 coupe black edition but I'm currently deliberating between the A5 Quattro black edition 2.0 petrol. Or the 3.0 S5 black edition. Was looking for some friendly...

jag f type is the real winner for me. but its a complete arm and a leg.

considering a 2nd hand vantage, but worried about the running costs of getting one 2nd hand (servicing / replacement parts etc.)

.. still waiting on the cayman.

so still waiting on seeing the new cayman shape,

but thrown another 2 into the mix

2nd hand Maser Granturismo

2nd hand Aston Vantage V8

both about - £37kish

which you guys prefer?

they are nice yeh,
but theres nothing special about them that would make me buy one tbh.

if im changing car i wanna be changing for the better in terms of aesthetics.

theres nothing really out there that i can see that doesn't cost 40k+ tho...

i like the look of the new jag f type. pricey though Also very nice. Shame about the boxster - saw another one today, still really taken with them. i haven't written it off, i just dont REaallly want to spend £50k on a car now if there was a current gen 2nd hand boxster in the colour and spec i wan...

they have an r up at my local vw dealer also, but i can't bring myself to up my payments for pretty much the same car. doesn't help that my gt model is remapped i guess. test driving the boxster and cayman today so will see how that pans out! So.... how did you get on? drove the boxster just was ni...

New boxster for me. Seen a couple now (both white) - both absolutely lovely. New Cayman shortly too - maybe worth waiting for? boxster 2.7 - comes in at 42.5k boxster 3.4 - comes in at 49k not sure if the extra 6.5k is worth it or not... probably? new cayman would prob be awesome, but i imagine it'...

i am starting to consider the new boxster tbh, looks wicked.

Well while the Camaro offer you a very tempting 432 PS and a massive 569.0 Nm torque the urban MPG figure of 13.5 would put me straight off. That's their laboratory figure so you can expect to get less than that, possibly 10mpg around town :no: :shake: On top of that insurance will be heavy, road t...

Well i can speak from test driving both. I test drove the cayman s (not the r) found it a bit slow. Handling and built quality def go to the porsche, on the other hand practicality and comfort id give a slight edge to the camaro. I was wondering why dont you consider waiting a bit for the golf mk7 ...

Definitely Cayman over Camaro. Why a cayman over a 911? You could get a vantage for that sort of money... prefer the shape of a cayman tbh i do like the vantage - although it seems pretty impossible to pick up a white one for sub 40k. wasn't aware of those other 2, any other cars you can think of. ...

a vote for all 3 then - this isn't helping my decision making process at all

a cayman s with side decal would prob be the most sensible cayman to buy, so its prob a toss up between that and a camaro then

i was at one stage considering a 370z gt edition also

Yeh another friend recommended it but is a bit much for me . Not a massive fan of the styling . And the stock exhaust sounds a bit too boy racer IMHO

The handling was actually alright on the camaro - granted the test drive was just up and down the motorway but whn it got the corners I didn't feel like it was having a problem getting round them

sooooo... i know i don't post on here often apart from ages ago but this forum has been a valuable source of information for me for when i was making mods to my scirocco, and im a believer in documenting everything on the net so as to help those who come behind you :) I was considering an upgrade fo...
