I did fall for number 2 years ago.
Never regretted it. went to 275000 km with it. Great fun for little money
How about the Lexus IS200? I think that car looks good even today.
Yes MG ZS! Cracking shout, mine is my bae
That’s the MK6 Fiesta though the new one is the MK7… This is the MK5 Fiesta
Fiesta ST is actually Mk6. There isn’t a Mk5 St.
The current model is the mk6, the previous was the mk5 and yes there was an ST.
It’s because the Mk4 and Mk5 were similar in appearance
Literally none of those cars a tempting. Maybe the Fiesta and Lexus.

I don’t see a single car that is unattainable at the beginning…honestly this list should be with Ferrari 360s, Mark 1 Gallardos, Old Mercedes AMG’s, older M cars(like the E36 rusty mc rust), Jaguar XK’s and maybe, just maybe the Porsche 997
I suppose it depends on what your idea of cheap is. Different people will give different answers.
Really? Ferrari 360s, Mark 1 Gallardos, Old Mercedes AMG’s, older M cars(like the E36 rusty mc rust), Jaguar XK’s and maybe, just maybe the Porsche 997 are all getting down into the below 15k dollar range?
Ok, well I’m sure some of those are actually under the 15k dollar range, but there is a damn good reason why they are selling stupid cheap.
The RX8 for example. With my current budget, there would have been no way I could have gotten one brand new. Now, the car is attainable. It’s the same for many, MANY other people.
Ow man this list is full of dogs. I mean .. how wrong can you get with a Probe or a Rover or a Puma … man oh man … next your telling us to get a Neon. No!!!
