Probably can't get a decent Triumph Stag for £3k so maybe a 2.5S....

Is there such a thing as a "decent" Triumph Stag?  ;)

If we're talking Triumph it has to be a TR4a or a GT6  :-* . Anyway, back to our 3K budget... ::)

Always fancied a P6 rover (V8, of course). I bet they'd seem pretty primitive (and slow, and thirsty) compared to an Omega these days though...

I would prefer the TR5 or at a push the TR250 (although 3k would probably only get me a ride in one). A number of years ago I had a very nice 3.9 TR7 V8 which the previous owner had spent over £14000 building and then sold to me at a knock down price. Unfortunately marriage was the end of that love affair :'(

I would have to go for a Mitsubishi Starion 2.6 Turbo.  Get it painted in rally colours.

have to agree with laidback66, would have to be the import version which has shorter wheelbase, wouldn't want to put anything init to weiugh it down, have driven a 450+ bhp version and they r a hoot, no traction control the back rubbers smoke all the way to the the big number on the stick
