JCW MINI S. Great car that was! :thumbsup: Still miss it to be honest! :(

Love my Z4 but not sure I would buy another now to be honest, but I would buy another MINI S. That was my 3rd MINI :wink:

There! I'm done! *gasp*
 
My old MR2 was great fun and was still running well at 253K miles when I sold it last year. Certainly gutless compared to the Z4, but there's something about mid-engine handling and balance I just prefer. Heck if the Cayman were only $25K cheaper I'd have probably gone for one instead of the Z.
 
the car right before my Z4 was an M Coupe. Awesome car.

still think its a beauty. :oops:
 
I bought a 2006 Volvo S40LE new. Absolutely loved it. Red with factory body kit and 18inch alloys. I have a soft spot for Volvos. I personally think they are easily one of the better looking cars out there in the compact exec class, and the best handling front-driver. Even when I went to go for our Z4 Coupe last deember I bauked towards the end as I really loved the Volvo.

Before that I bought a '95 Audi 80 2.6E the year after I finished uni. Good car, but was definately getting on a bit when I bought it on early '05.

My partner had a '03 Ford Focus Zetec before the 120D.
