911 Turbo
or an F40

[M3Imy]

if you're talking realistically...in a few years i would like to own a 993 Turbo to replace the Coupe. If I won the lottery it would have to be an F40...raw as an e30 m3 but a proper supercar..hmmmm.

[peejay]

Talking of supercars...... I'd kill 4 an M1. Although I wouldnt use it often!

I have a heap of cars that I would like to own, unfortunately most of them are too expensive. But, and not necessarily in this order:

1. Aston Martin V8 Vantage (new one)
2. Aston Martin V8 Vantage (old 80's)
3. Aston Martin DB4 GT (or a DBR1, different cars but just 1 would be enough I think)
4. Ford GT40
5. BMW M3 CSL
6. BMW Z3M Coupe
7. BMW E30 M3, probably an Evo (I know you said after E30 but this is a car I would always want )
8. One that I have designed and plan to build myself
9. Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI or IX, can't decide yet
10. Some sort of ferrari, maybe 250GTO or 360 CS
11. A Porsche 911 (not sure what sort but every raves about them so I'd better try one, GT3 RS sounds nice)

That is probably enough to keep my occupied for a while but I am sure there are more. One that I am actually thinking of buying is an E36 M3 3.0L, mostly because they are fairly quick and seem to be getting fairly cheap out here so I might actually be able to afford one.

Andy335 - cheers for sorting the link fella
For Ԛ£500 i'm a happy boy. Got a few things to sort, namely some bodywork and the diff bearings are noisy. After that, it will just be the constant list of little fixes to do and source a leather interior then funds and the missus permits!!

[GuyM]

expensive divorce means i have come from a 4.3 pre-cat tvr griffith to an e30 2.5 cab (bought 2 weeks ago - which is excellent fun). cash permitting i would prob go for a tvr again. i know reliability aint great but 300bhp in something that weighs about as much as my left shoe is awsesome value performance for around Ԛ£10,000.
in the meantime i love my e30 - looks cool, very chuckable and rwd...that's what its all about.
in the real world, i guess i would look at a early e36 m3...values have stabilsed nicely which shows it is starting to be appreciated as a future classic

[bennyp]

got me thinking now...

id have to have a koenigsegg

http://www.koenigsegg.com/

awesome machines.

if not one of those, then a tvr tuscan

[Davenotouring]

I'd like loads of different cars, but realistically I'd like an E36 M3 Evo Saloon. Although I don't think they are as much fun as an E30 After having driven two of my mates ones and drifting one at Silverstone Saturday just gone!!

So I really don't know.

I'd love a Caterham with a Vx Red-Top Engine, but they aren't practical...

What could I get for about 7000 pounds which is reasonably reliable, great fun, RWD, and fast as fu*k?

[frosted]

mint e36 m3 3.0l with mods to 300 bhp

defo a bargin

TVR...

[E30BeemerLad]

Forgot to mention my all time favourite car....


Lotus Carlton mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[JoeP]

Realistically, E34 530/40/M5 touring would do me next.
One day I'll treat myself to a 4.5 Cerbera, just a substitute for the 456 GT I'll never be able to afford although they are getting near Ԛ£40k. If I had any interest in a 'career' it might help! I might have to have a 306 GTi6/Rallye at some point as well, perfect go-kart for these country roads.

[Davenotouring]

Jhonno....

Did you read the bit which said 'Reasonably Reliable' not 'You'll need AA, RAC, Green Flag, and GEM breakdown cover if you buy one' when you suggested a TVR?

[Jhonno]

You didnt say 100% reliable

it'd be worth the odd bit of hassle

[320Touring]

1991 CHEVROLET Corvette Coupe, Red
on Red, warranted 38k with history, one of finest in UK, may p/x. Ԛ£8,000.
DromeyTel: (01507) 450699
Distance: 243 miles
Price: Ԛ£8,000

ok so its 1k over budget but it is fast as fook, reliable and easuily fixed (big hammer)

also a bit of a drift slag....

[Davenotouring]

Just saw that Neil!! Proper old school Need For Speed that is!!

5.7 V8 Awesome....but the MPG would be dire!

5.7 V8 Awesome....but the MPG would be dire!

and a 3.5 touring would be so much more fuel efficient

plus with a big enough hammer that lump is good for easily 500bhp

[rjd325i]

Already got mine the E30's just to ferry the wife and kids.

Jensen Healey with Rover V8 fitted.

[hamski]

I left E30 ownership last year, sold my M3 cab, had a 328i sport for a while and then got my dream car..Audi S3 with 330 bhp upgrade.

Now I miss the E30 again

[Matt_M44is]

Will never sell the e30, quite happily sell the e36 but the e30 will live on!!!

[Zayyan]

got my dream car..Audi S3 with 330 bhp upgrade.

How do you get 330bhp from an S3?

Not the standard engine is it?

S4 chipped only managed 315bhp and that's a 2.7

[naylor04]

I plan on keeping my E30 for EVERRRRRRRRRRRR, well if not my E30, someone elses however i am getting a Caterham7 for my 40th and keeping the E30 too, not a new one of course, used is the way to go !

MTM tune the S3 to 330bhp it is waaay fast.

[Zayyan]

Ah, MTM, I should've remembered that

Gotta get a bit of persuasion done to get the banana down there

EDIT: The banana is this thing

[e30symphony]

There has been a lot of replies saying they would have a E46 M3, but nobody has said the E46 M3 CSL that would have to be on my list along with:
Carrera GT
Merc SLR
DB9
