What does CS think?
Unsure if i will keep the Jeep. I like it, but have itchy feet already.
Due to dropping prices of M3s i could purchase an E36 and easily live with costs. But hard ot find a decent one that isnt a shed or overpriced. The Astra is the sensible answer as you can get a 6/7year old one with hardly any miles for under £5k. Just will handle like poop and not be a bmw. Plus it will depreciate more.
The E46 is plummeting in price, expensive to run especialy if you break headlights but the ultimate car for fun vs practicality.
Abarth is a brand new fixed cost motoring. Small fun and has a warranty
Help.

Didnt you get rid of the clio and M3 to save money mate? If so you would prob regret most of them bar the astra soon after the novelty wears off and you want to save money again.

Served a purpose at the time, i dont have the capital to purchase outright all would be purchased with a loan which i can afford before the finance anti ferrari police come out the woodwork.
Novelty never wore off tbh
Problem is cars are expensive, id rather spend a few quid more and get the car i want rather than spending nearly the same amount on something i like but would sell for an ///M in a heartbeat.

don't get an astra ffs, you will want to get rid of it by the time winter comes imo.
out of all those i would get an E36 M3, but not a vert, cherish it and be the man.
E46 do look nice but a bit too trendy at the moment for me

Abarth is fucking cool. I sat in one and loved it, its cheap to insure cheap to tax and cheap to buy! BUT its only tiny and its slow.
E46 is tempting as i fancied one in Estoril/grey

i'd get one just like that and all original, then keep it well maintained, maybe just sensible upgrades.

E36 isn't cool anymore, it's dated.
