If you Bought a New Car? What Would You Choose?

[Mr Skrunts]

The Omega wont last for ever

I liked the Senater but never owned one but drove one of the latest 24v from new on a weekly basis.

I had a manual Carlton 2.0 and 2.0 Diplomat auto, a tad smaller inside and less comfortable than the Senator.

Since then (and still own all 3) 2.5 auto, 3.0 Elie and 2.2 Auto Omegas (All petrol) all a tad smaller inside than the Carltons.

I like the idea of the PHEV in principle but never driven one or know anyone to talk about owning one.  No way I fancy an EV

I want the comfort and size of the Senator.

BMW 7 series. Merc S class (403MPG) all look nice but stupidly priced compared to my income

The BMW 1 Series and some of the Mercs look interesting MPG (Quoted figure of 470MPG)

Peugot offer a 300BHP + 308SW Estate that I like the look of but was put off after watching a youtube video of the steering wheel shape and complaing about seeing the dash.  Also looking at the seats they wont be very comfortable.

I want comfort, economy, tech is good but would be exspensive when it screws up.

I just woke up and the dream came to end end, I only won £30 on the lottery, So the choice is now, Corgi, Hot Wheels. Dinky or Matchbox.

We need some sort of price ceiling, Skruntie.

The 7 series is a weighty lump that will drop in price like a brick down a well.

The 1 series is an ugly little f*ucker.

Quite happy with the Mexican built 2 series even though it lacks the cachet of the Mighty Signum.

Omega is a good car,Senator a much better one.Wouldn't buy a brand new car at any price.

Is this actually true, Mr Baza, or rose-tinted nostalgia?

Me neither, why would anyone want to pay 20% VAT? A £15,000 car would cost you £18,000.

99 times out of every hundred I would agree.....but the world is f*ucked at the moment.

However, I bought new because it was cheaper than used. Even now some used M240i are selling for about £7000 more than I paid new.

I bet all of those are the Bellend Purple ones. See if you'd have listened to us and stuck with the Bellend Purple, you'd have a nice little investment on your hands. 

The drug dealers don't want blue ones you know.

If I were to buy a new car it would be a Subaru or a Toyota.

The M240i I had a test drive in was finished in bellend purple.

There was only 6 colours to choose from.

Bellend purple.....aka Thundernight.

Taxi white.
Wedding car white.
Portimao blue.
Melbourne red.
Grey Primer....aka Brooklyn grey.

I think I made the best choice all things considered.

[STEMO]

Mmmmmm......nice 

[Nick W]

Thunder night purple


Who says Germans don't have a sense of humour ?


Those triangular holes are interesting. What were they thinking. Perhaps the drugs were starting to wear off.

Maybe you can buy a Bellend Purple lawn mower instead? 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Probably a Lexus, although I dont even know what models they have in their range now.
Wouldnt touch a Vauxhall with a ten foot pole - French crap.

I presume you're talking brand new?

Even new Corsa money will buy a very nice CL and a decent amount of petrol.
