your loss... new ones are fantastic.. older ones are quirky but all just have soul.
And before you start on how unreliable. I did 78kin 3 years in mine without one fault. ... done 18600 in the latest in 10months and again faultless.
But you have to want one... unless you drive one.. and the giulia quadrifoglio is something special. |

Some people can't afford to go to clubs that are promoted, it doesn't mean people shouldn't advertise to the people who can afford it
( when clubs are open of course ) |

we do not know what is ahead in life at the moment, play safe, buy a Toyota Hilux, pay for a few modifications and the Hilux will take you anywhere off or on road,
off road may be the required travel soon, no worries on speed bumps etc, no one looking to steal, and plenty room in real canopy to store food, fuel, firearms and ammo |

I’ve got an e46 BMW 330 from 2004 with only 193000 on the clock. Still pulls like a train. Gonna need a new front wing and some patching on the rear arches.
I could let it go for £90,000 plus your M4 if you’re keen. |

They’re obviously car people. They’ll appreciate a future classic when they see one. I’m not sure I’d move to Derby at any cost though. |

When I was younger I loved a new car and I still do but now I think more of the money and how hard it is to earn back.
Anything on wheels loses money and when your self employed and going through a bad patch, I think to myself why did I blow so much money on that piece of tin.

"I thought this was a “if you had a” thread.......
This is real?
So many people struggling and this is the dilemma?
Blimey 
Was no body struggling in the world be for this ?"
Yes of course they were. It would clearly be an insensitive and braggy thread in any situation. |

Not even an 8c?
If I had a 100k budget for a car, first I’d pat myself on the back then I’d buy a Jaguar F-pace SVR for the school run and food shopping then buy an older Nissan GTR for fun.
Op bit of advice, it’s quite tasteless and vulgar to discuss money.

"Why not buy two cars? One big one for the family (kids gonna get bigger) and a fast sporty one for the weekend?
Probably a good time to buy as dealers may be more open to offers?"
Most if not all dealerships are closed at the moment. |

A few are open round my way, a few are now appointment only. But those are the independent ones, not sure about chain dealerships? |

Whilst I appreciate what you are saying, £100k could feed a family for 4/5years.
£30 is an average takeaway for a lot of folks.....

"It is all relative...some people earn more money than others and like to spend it how they please. "
That's so true, they can spend it on whatever they want.
But in uncertain times like these where there are people who work hard to make ends meet and suddenly find themselves wondering how they are going to feed their kids for them next few months, I find it quite disrespectful to come on a swingers forum bragging that they are looking to spend 100 grand on a car.
There are plenty of prestige car forums you can go to ask that and you'll probably get better advice too, but a swingers forum where a lot of people are struggling isn't the place, especially now. Just my opinion of course |

You don't have to read it
I don't see who they are being disrespectful to
Whatever is happening in the world today there will always be people who are in difficulties with money. It doesn't mean you have to stop living your life. If someone wants to post they have 100 grand for a car on a forum, it isn't their fault if others don't have enough money for other things.
I don't know if it is true that there is 100 grand available but if it is then I think everyone has a right to do and say what they want about their own money without others trying to make them feel bad for doing so. |

You like Maserati ? "
I’ve been looking for the last year but nothing excited me like a Maserati . The sensible part of my brain keeps saying no get a boring Audi or Mercedes with 5k on the clock instead and save yourself a fortune |

"M-B AMG GT63 S
Great cars but the "R" is way better, just given my loaner back...
I find Mercs quite feminine, but they are trying more these days."
Was dropped one of the new A45s little shopping cars...£55k and was not expecting much...
The thing is bonkers.....totally insane and completely changed my perspective of these little cars... |

Easy, go for the i8, should just work out the right price with what your trading in and keeps things simple but obviously depends on how big your kids are for if their ok in the back. Plus your doing your bit for the environment |

£30 could also be an amount some people have left over to feed their family for a week. They may think someone spending £30 plus on an entry to a sex club is people who have no thought or consideration for other people who struggle
As I say, it is all relative

A swinging club is for swingers and often where swingers with families go to play with others whilst they have kids at home.
A sex club is generally a brothel and a different kettle of fish
Whilst I understand your point, one is a fairly 'normal' amount of money, the other would be considered prohibitive by many.
However this digresses from the thread so I'll leave it there x |

It is only normal to people who think nothing of spending it, to people who are on the breadline it is a lot of money
