So then, what car are you buying next?

[The Doc]

surely if your going to spend 40k + on a car you would get something abit more class not a hair dressers porch   i would take my brothers approach and buy a second hand 2010 nissan R35 GTR what a machine! i do have to admit though that porsche looks nice in white   shame everyone owns them  

I've always aspired to be a hairdresser, now with this car and a deep orange tan, I'll have achieved the nexus of my social aspirations. 

I'm getting it in 3.4, flat black and it'll be debadged and have those tacky decals taken off the side. I want it to be as understated and non hair dresser as possible. Besides, the 'Coxster' is the hairdresser car. A Cayman R is a little bit different.

I test drove a GTR Black Edition but it was a bit 'need for speed' and while it's an incredible car, it's not for me.

Nice choice,

GTR's break - a lot, we tune all of Car Planet Racings European cars and they seem to have a constant flow of broken GTRs, the gearbox seems the biggest culprit and UK Nissan dealers seem at a loss about servicing etc

Car Planet Racing? Are those the guys who have just done a runner a la RC Development style?

[The Doc]

They sure are, although what that has to do with GTR's breaking?

I'll try to keep my current Mk6 Golf GTI going as long as possible! The way gti prices is going up at present, it is getting a bit too close to nearly new high end BMW 3 series coupe and Merc C-class coupe. I think the Mk7 gti will easily cost more than £30000-£35000 with option and will depreciate even heavier!

For my sunday drive, I don't think I will ever sell my gen 2 911 c2s. It will be my last Porsche---They depreciate too much. The only sensible purchase is a low mileage second hand F430 to replace my F355 but I think the latter still looks great!

....which is when VW will come to regret that "just a golf" advert

Absolutely nothing and never suggested it did have anything to do with it.

I'm getting a Jeep Cherokee, but only to use for the winter to save my GTI from all the salt and grit  [especially the wheels]; he will only come out on dry days once the salt and grit is down

I've still really like the audi A1's.... Outside my local audi dealers is one of these A1 Competetion models.

@Martin: I have seen so many A1s. IMO the shape of the rear is all wrong. It has a weird light looking arse which does not match the butch planted front of the car. The car is neither fish nor foul. Pity.
