I think my top choices would be Boxster, Manual Z4, Merc350 or TT 3.2 manual.
A 3.2 manual TT doesn't exist they are all DSG jobies

Get the Boxster (assuming its the new one)

Mini Cab

Go on, it'll be a laugh........for us.

I voted Boxster, don't care for an image, but out of them all I suspect it will be the best overall - if only because the MR2 and MX5 could do with some more go.

I voted Boxster, I would want to see if the newer Boxster is more exciting than the one I test drove a few years ago (I doubt it).

I think you should not have the car for 5 days and on the 6th get the Aston...

as discussed with Mr V. I'm sure Kelk will be along soon to agree with me

Get a Boxster, and do as much as you can to tarnish their repuation. Drive with the roof up on sunny days, park inconsiderately, keep in the middle lane of the motorway, don't let people out at junctions and never stop at a zebra crossing

I don't think you need to do that to tarnish their reputation, they do it themselvs...

Would be interesting to live with one for a while and see if my opinion was changed. Although being thought of as a twat because of the car I drive, rather than because I am one would be tiring I suspect, as would all the waiting to exit junctions....
I'm already getting that in the Z4 It's actually quite noticeable !!!
