was wondering if any1 knows the perfomance figures for one of these???

web page

It okay now found it out about 5.5 secs 0-60 depending on engine and around 150mph top end, am well impressed for such an old car and 200bhp

id take them figures as optimistic now though considering the age of the car/engine

u after one of those rhys? im not a fan of that shape,prefer the next newest model at the very least,then they just get better and better

im not to sure now, thought insurance would have been relativley simlar to the jag but its 3000 a year and the chimera is cheaper and newer at 2500 a year.

U'd pay 2.5k a year????? ever thought of somethin much cheaper to buy and insure mate,such as a sports car or hi performance saloon, 200SX/old M3 for instance

I want something rare, not offten seen, but dont want to pay more than 10000, would prefer to look for something around the 7-8000 mark and then ive got extra money to get a minter if you know what i mean rather than get a 10000 car in poor condition, age of the car isnt to much of a factor as i may get a cheap run around for work and nly insure it for weekend use. Just looking around at the moment untill november when my savings mature.

Rhys i only have two things to say...

AMG

or

M5

to common the amg anyway, and ive had 2 bmw's and if a m5 bmw drove past me i wouldnt notice the difference from the standard 1 if your talking about the E34 all be it their great cars, i want something else.

how can an AMG merc be common. i have only ever seen 2 in my life.

or you could get an old prancing horse

Ive seen loads of dem, They dont look anything from a standard merc like the bmw it just the engine and bit more interior goodies lol, now a prancing hourse is a bit more like it, your talking my style, whats the perfomance out of one of those??/ lol

whats the retail on one of those?
More than u can afford PAL, Ferrari! Voom voom!

Rhys,AMGs are sexual. The clk 55 is a ****ing gorgeous motor,the seats are the best things ive EVER seen,obv u cant affor one of dem but still, the whole AMG brand is good,and people who know cars will turn their heads and appreciate it,is that all u care about?"If one drove past u u wudnt notice the difference?"Does that REALLY matter,just means u can be kinda sleeper,but as i said above,anyone who knows cars will know not to **** with an M5/AMG

no 1 said a clk and as i mentioned i was looking around the 10000 mark i assumed he was talking about the old c or e class amg not a 30000 + clk so na na na

I though he realisticly was talking about on of these amg


and the basic, as you can see hrdley any difference and like i say i wouldnt look at it twice

I didnt think he was talking about a clk55 as this one in the pic is $78000 and i obviously havnt got that hence why i though he ment the above ones, but find me one within my 10000 budget scoop and u will be my best mate lol

Rhys,

My Dad bought one of these before Christmas:





He spent ages looking for one, and you certainly need to spend more than £10k to get a good one. His is an '87 with 130k miles and the essential FPSH and is a minter, and cost quite a bit more than £10k - also, with this kind of car, dont be fooled in to thinking you can run a car like this on a budget as parts and servicing costs aint cheap

i just gave the CLK as an example mate,to demonstrate how good AMG are.AS we've seen on top gear, u cant get much supercar for 10k. Remember the 10k challenge where they got cheap ass ferraris and stuff,fell apart is what they did.Whats up with the jag??? why not keep the jag and get a "toy" such as that kit car u got rid of lol

I want stuys dads, I was looking in the trader and their are some real cheap dogs for about 5000, but i have found some decent example for about 8000 with about 100k on the clock with fsh not all porsche. I think 10k will find me a decent one around an 83-89, i am prepared to throw money at it eg engine work, full respray etc. I aint going to buy a dog and i never have done so you will have to wait till november to find out ha ha ha.

here a similar example:

another realy good example at £8000
