BMW M3
1. Wanted decent looks, performance, space and cheapish running costs
2. Price range around 25-26k
3. Reliable, practicality, not in your face so you can leave it anywhere.
Which is probably why I'll buy an E92 next.

Corsa 1.6 16v Sport
1. Originally had a 1.2 8v Corsa and liked this forum, as well as the cars as a whole.
2. Wanted a faster car, and the insurance was only £50 more for the year than my 1.2
3. Found it very cheap on Autotrader - high mileage, but had a brand spanking engine fitted by Vauxhall very recently
