Thinking of a new car....

Think i'm going to sell the v6 clio next year but haven't really got a clue what to get next, has to be impractical like the clio and as quick. I also want something that will hold its value as mine has actually gone up in value a bit since i bought it. I'm tempted by a Porche Boxter but don't know if they are a bit gay...... lol

Boxters are ghey.

They just say about the people that bought them "I couldn't afford a 911"

nah, it ain't got a sunroof Icon_smile

The Clio is awesome to be fair. Least i can say i've owned one. I just fancy a change to be honest but i'm not selling it just yet. Also fancy something just a bit more sane that i can actually take places and park without being too worried about it. Ive already had a few run ins and because the shell is fibreglass, it cracks easily. Also the bumpers are a grand a piece, i dread to think how replacement wings would cost
