Where's the sweet spot?

Looking for a new daily runner.

Is there a sweet spot between just another old car and retro cool? I'm not after the golden goose future classic, just something cheap that looks cool, rather than a crappy old car...

Renault Clio 172 or 182 look good bets, both can be had for less than £2k.

Or mk1 Audi TT.

Just get the car you like the most in the best condition you can.

If it is older than 4 years, it will look crap in the eyes of some anyway.

I missed a mk1 golf a few weeks ago, real shame, as in a few years I think that it will be the next classic

Or a 2002 BMW , tourer would be my choice, if I had to buy a BMW !

Or an early Vauxhall caviler boring as f***, but different





Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at

All good options. I have a mate selling a rare blue mk1 TT but it's too much of a girls car.

Early Vauxhalls might be a good idea along with VWs. Would also like a Rover SD1...
