    Yeah. Friend of mine got a G60 at the same time I got a 3.0 Supra. Although mine was sportier his certainly got most of the attention. His was a classic and mine just got old and looked v dated. I've thought about getting my childhood fave cars but I have a feeling once I get them the lack of power steering and awful engines etc will just disappoint so I've held off for now. Happy just looking for now.

      Why don't you ask your accountant, he's likely to have just a spare 5 minutes

            Hhmm, I always heard bad things about the supercharger, so I opted for the VR6.
            Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

              Deffo the best one. We were in our early 20s so cost of the car and insurance was a bit of a limiting factor

                I was mid twenties and didn't really eat cos all my money went on the car / booze.

                  Been WFH a fair bit so only just passed 210K. Infuriatingly I had to get the cheque book out last month when the wipers packed in. It's only 15 years old FFS.

                    Still got my car from when I first went contracting, 20 years ago, splashed out for a 2 seat kit car, still going strong, but needs some TLC now and again. 25 years old now and only 65K miles. Had a Saab from new and got rid at 10 years old, with 170K on it.
