I'm hoping there's a mechanic out there who can build one for me. Although that might be more expensive.

A bmw e92 m3, and the rest on rod bearings.

Or a Citroen c6.

Or a Mercedes w212 e63 amg estate.

Or a mk 7 fiesta st and all the bits 17 year old me would have wanted to put on it.

Or a supercharged v8 jaguar xj of a more recent vintage (but not the silly looking new one with the slim headlights).

Or the cheapest best quality Aston Martin Vantage I can afford for 30k, and pray to the unknowable mechanical gods it doesn’t bankrupt me.

Or a Ford B-max and a spare fiesta st engine and transmission and rear axle, so I can transplant all that into a humble b max and surprise all the mobility scooters off the line at traffic lights.

Or the nicest bug eyed Nissan micra that I can find.

The list goes on, really

..Looking at current market, I'd buy a Mazda MX-5 ( £24k).

Great fun, petrol, manual, soft top sports car.... built forever, won't be around much longer, so possibly an investment... (get it undersealed and look after it) 🤗

I mean considering cars are mostly a depreciating asset and they lose roughly 50% of their value in first 3 years. I don't see why anyone sane would but a brand new car

Why have a 2 seater when you can have 7.

Can tow a sailboat

Host an orgy

Fast as fuck (the P editions)

Handy for carrying lots of people

Those doors are bonkers

Drives itself when you can't be arsed.

"1982 Pontiac Trans Am "

..lovely car, but parts & repair's would blow you out the water..

..good luck finding someone willing/able to repair in UK...

sorry, if you can, or have a mechanic then great, but that will be otherwise difficult, depending on where you are

and this will be the problem moving forward..(once we have electric only technicians)..

Main dealers will be electric,

so even servicing a car might mean taking a day off to sort out, as nearest dealer/service is sparse..

(sorry that sounds neg, but truelly from driving almost 40 years, I completely feel we're being pushed away from care to public transport.

4x wider rims and tyres

2x racing bucket seats and harnesses

1x full roll cage

1x full set plexi glass

Go full midlife crisis and get a Porsche. 30k will get a nice, clean 996, or an early 997.

Or go transverse and look for a nice 944/968, or even a 928.

As a play car, a Rover P6, V8.

I'd want it modernised whilst keeping the original look, as I quite enjoy how modern cars start in the wet and stop when you press the brakes.

As a day to day car, just a small and environmentally friendly Toyota would do
