Killing myself laughing here, MSN have done one their eternally carp "carticles" suggesting alternatives to top brand desirable vehicles, so if you hanker after an M5 their suggestion is a 540i, if you want your old 205GTi back then what about a 309 etc.

It's worth a quick blow over if you are bored but a little way through I encountered an Ewok.


....and MSN's suggestion for TaTa's new 'cheaper' motor....?

Brilliant cars and the bargain alternatives

:cheese:

Funny, you can use a law of diminishing returns there too, can't afford a Cayman - have a BRZ, can't afford a GT86 - have a 944.

What do reckon is furthest from the mark, the 911 alternative?

I clicked through all of that and didn't see an Ewok...

As I understand it, the title refers to "brilliant cars". That is why the evoque isn't there?.aperbag:

Waiting for the riposte. Dum, didum, dum, didum.

Not worthy of one.

Am I reading this right?

"Can't afford a Veyron? A Passat Estate will do, instead"

What?

I also assume they've never driven a 540i. If so, they'd know the 535i is a much sweeter drive (esp the steering)

Are you looking for something small and furry or did you just not click on the 'left' navigation?

 

[TheGrimJeeper]

Yes.

Awwww. My ski resort sojourns the last couple of weeks would suggest otherwise, Captain Iglo.

 

[Verbout]

Yes.

Took longer than I expected

I'd definitely get a niva over a duster...

 

[TheGrimJeeper]

The Niva only just nips in 1st due to
the availability of an official snowplough
attachment.

Dusters are getting very popular around here:thumbup:

Are they the Lada and Skoda of yester year :biglaugh:

If you really want a Ferrari 456 but can't afford one a Hyundai coupe will do ???? oh I need to mop up the old speckled hen I've spat out of my mouth and all over my dog, who is now looking at me like I'm a fool

The GTV cup is a mighty rival to the hair dressers choice. Brawn over tampons

The Hen or the dog?

It is all rather silly I think. I have seen a Hyundai Coupe advertised in Autotrader or Ebay in Ferrari red. I think it may have had stickers on too.
Must be something in it right?

 

[Cuore_Sportivo_155]

had a neighbour with a black Hyundai Coupe, including Ferrari badges...

I remember seeing a 147 once in similar livery ....

Whilst I still think it is silly, without Alfa there would never have been a Ferrari. Of that I'm sure.
My old Rover :lol:
