She was a honey but the wrong colour at the wrong time.

It was probably why I took several cans of primer to her before embarking on a driveway respray.......

The interesting ones only in reverse order

Current

RS6 - needed a family car
Mini JCW convertible - needed a family car, but clearly too small!!
TVR Sagaris - one of the best looking cars around IMHO
Lotus 340r - back to basics
Noble GTO - handling of the elise and punch of the skyline
Ariel Atom (shared) - absolute blast
R26R (shared) - Arriving at the weekend

Previous

430 Spider - great noise
360 - even better noise
M3 convertible - previous family car
TVR Tuscan S - quick!! And not as scary as people say.
Evo 6TME and Evo 6 - never thought they were as good as everyone made out. But I still bought another! Go figure.
GTR33 520bhp - monster car, awesome drive
964 porsche - always wanted one and did not disappoint
Elise - fabulous little car
Focus RS - best front wheel drive car, so far .......
Alfa GTA - great engine
Civic Type R - great engine, great gearbox

How does the M5 compare to the RS6? I was in 3 minds about the "family" car, E55, E69M5 or RS6. An excellent RS6 came along and I went for that.

The 993 turbo is one of my fave looking cars.

the e69 M5 I feel is more powerful it's alot of car but then you pay a higher price and I wasn't too pleased with gearbox judder after after a hard drive!
Overall value for money u can't go wrong with the RS

Errm. Thats some list of cars. I agree on the Sagaris, it is the best looking (if least reliable) car on your list. A guy i used to work with had a black one with a green tint along with black alloys and Emerald green interior. Looked like batman owned it.

What do you do for a living then? Other than swiming in pools of cash of course

Mine is spectraflair silver which is amazing in the sunlight, with anthracite alloys (can't make my mind up about them), but I know the green/black colour you are referring to.

I swim in other people's money

, I am a bean counter.
