If you had £10,000 hard earned to spend on absolutely any car….what would you buy and why?

The best Alfa GT V6 I could find. The reason is simply that I want another one to go along with the cars I already have.

10k Trappy? What you doing then? Haha, trying to keep it running! I started the spend over a year ago and it'll be getting on for £10k soon... that's all! I'm just tidying everything up and trying to make it the car it should / could always have been with a fair few modifications on the way. When I looked at what £10k would get me two years ago, I still couldn't find anything better. The girlfriend bought a 350z for £9k a year ago and, compared to mine, I can't see why it was worth that really.
F****** b****** thing...

I'm considering the E90 335d coupe at the moment, it's been called the best all rounder you can buy. It goes like stink, good mpg and can carry 4 people...plus they can be played with to go faster. 10K will just about get you one with around 100k mileage, I need something that will be a nice place to sit for my 3 hour commute each day.

Proccy?? What'd you thoughts on them? very very capable car, mine is mapped to around 360bhp and is noticeably quicker that a standard M3......just having some paintwork seen to then a couple of internal blemishes sorted - then it'll be a proper car and i'll sell it for way less than £10k!! i recommend them, in 9 months of ownership its cost me nothing beyond fuel, which is a massive revelation over my coupe experience

I've changed my mind, the Audi TT 3.2 looks like a bargain. Anyone got any previous that will help picking a good one?

the older 3.2 had some timing chain issues, not too sure if the newer model uses the same unit
