How about a Reliant Scimtar?  ::)  It seems like good condition ones are like rocking horse do doos, so if a decent one could be found it might be a good investment and pretty cool too!  8)

As far as I'm aware the TVR S3 is still for sale. No surprise with a £3950 asking price for a far from resolved motor car.

I quite like the Alpina BMW. The one with the 4.6 litre lump in the handsome E39 body. These are pretty rare.

£8-£10000 buys something just that little bit different. :y

.....or I could spent £10000 on a Daewoo like a certain OOF member. ::) ::) ::) ;)

Lets hope whatever you buy costs the same to run as my daewoo. But I very much doubt it.

So do I. ;D ;D

I will probably end up with a another money pit like the CLS.

I have form. :-\ :'( :'(

BMW 850 is more of a moneypit than a 928, crazy electrics ! I've been in a few 928's and they are gorgeous, brutal buggers  :y

It was in the brief M'lud!  ;)  ;D

Anyhoo, these are a bit 'Boy Racer' but get the right one and I reckon they're properly mental!  Struggling with the budget to get a good one but you'll get my 'drift' !  ::)

Gentlemen, I give you the Nissan Skyline!  8) :y

I was looking for a Lancia Beta earlier but couldn't find one in budget.  :-\  So the Gamma's good!  :y

Riley Elf is cool!  8)  but I just can't see Lord Opti swanning round Lincolnshire with his elbow out the window in that somehow.  :-\

Triumph Stag is a contender! and would be a proper Moneypit too!  :y  Yours is over budget though Al.  ::)
