A 911 has rear seats, no legroom, but an ancle-biter does not need leg room. I think if i have to go practical (more seats) it would have to be a 911.

but the boot is not that big, if you want to get a pram in it I doubt if you could. You would easily get a pram in the back if you folded down the seats but then the kid would have to sit in the boot

The overwhelming view according to your poll is to sod practicality and keep the S2K.

If you're going to have a poll, you really should go with the concensus!

It's hardly an unbiased sample though is it .

I'm going to go down to Newcastle and test drive the FD2 they have down there in about 3 weeks when Andy (200bhp) gets back and if the car gives me goosebumps I'm probably going to buy one.

The mpg on a monaro is too low for me and the boot isn't really what I'm after although it does make me go all captain caveman when I see it, I will own a muscle car but when I have lots of money and not any sooner. M5 and S4 are both possibilities but for some reason I like Japanese cars... They are also more expensive for a nice one.

911 isn't really ideal, my budget is about 23-24k on the basis that I can sell my S for about 20 ish, my other option is to buy a third car for 3k or so.

Thanks for the help folks, I'm clearly no further down the line just like cars more than is healthy
