Porsche Boxser S models, reliable,reasonably efficient,presumeably plentiful in your market,cooper s has a little style that you can tweak the performance levels from the aftermarket.

Fiat's,Alfa's,MG's and TR's might be inexpensive till you leave them at their second home, the mechanic...newer more mainstream
models might be the way to go...


The problem is that I really don't want a new car because if I did, I'd buy a 4/4 Sport or Roadster.

I know the foibles of classic car ownership; however, I actually want the period feel (drive and ambiance) or an 'oldtimer'. I may regret it (I'll be honest and admit it on here); however, that is part of the reason for keeping the price low.

Man logic wink
