And it can't be an Audi

What's you're grand gonna buy you??

just to remind you lot of the rules cos I reckon there's a bit of rule bending going on here

.

Your choices don't have to be a classic's now, but could eventuallly be at least sought after in a few years. The sort that could be hovering about in the twilight zone of classic status or the crusher.

I HATE FIATs but I can confirm this particular modle is brilliant to drive, goes like hell and sounds great!! I (begrudgingly) approve!

I have always apreciated the Rover 620Ti (turbo one).

Seems as how old fords go for sill money, I reckon a MK1 Mondeo 4x4 Si would be a good investment.
Esp as it was one of the last AVO developed models
