How about a V8 Australian Vauxhall? In budget, V8, absolutely nuts apparently!

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

I think I would rather own a yellow Robin Reliant with 'Trotters independent trading Co' on the side than another Vauxhall.

This was my exact worry before I took the plunge, but once I started driving the Cayman all my worries were gone. No regrets whatsoever.

I'm with Rob, every petrolhead should at one time in their life own an Elise chassis and experience being properly connected to the road!
Otherwise, I do love the mk2 SLK look with the F1 inspired front end (appreciate its marmite though) and in V8 format is fantastic
The Fiat Barchetta is stunning, shame they are LHD!
I saw a Honda S660 at a show recently, they look brilliant too, I love how they show off the engine bay etc.
Of course you can then go back in to British sports car eras of the 70s and they all look absolutely fantastic, even if they fall apart during use!

Quite like the convertible TR7 or TR8 they have become better looking with age and a cheap classic at the moment , not for much longer though I would imagine. Was on my list before getting the Z4 bug.
