Anyone got a fun daily car for sale?

Hi Chaps

I'm after a daily driver. I'm very open minded as to what. I definitely like RWD but will look at anything (did I say that already?). Two seats is fine. I run a V10 M5 at the moment and use it for everything. I've come to the conclusion that 25k miles in a year in an M5 may be a little excessive. I don't want to spend too much money.

I'm keeping the M5 too, this is an extra car!

Was thinking of a MX5?

Anyone got anything interesting then?

Cheers

My a6 2.7t is still for sale. Incredibly fun for the money, and at 21mpg not totally unreasonable.





Beware! Bourettes is binfectious.

Ed mate. I think you missed the word "fun" in his request?

Yeah maybe...but for a Ford it handles good and therefore fun! It's fun but comes with practicality too.

Nice but not really solving my problem of running a big engine car to nip to the local shops in!

Bicycle. Preferably MTB; you'd be surprised how much fun can be had by utterly knackering yourself out
