Interesting; I drove a C8 at a press launch a couple of years back of the Spyker F1 team. Was rather nice, very luxurious, and made a great noise. Wouldn't mind one!

I'm a man of simple tastes.

Should i win a substantial ammount, i'll be getting an Audi:

This one is the one that featured in Iron Man. Its what i like, so there!

would that be classed as a supercar? or a sports car such as the skyline etc?

Probably, but it would do me.

That is the R8, yes? If so, it is far from being the staple of men of 'simple' tastes such as Mr Darn; indeed, Andrew Frankel, perhaps the finest writer in the automotive world, describes it as ' the best supercar for under £100k....'

I suspect Mr Darn needs to begin saving.......(oh, and go for the V10 version).

I'd have to rip off a fair few people on That online auction site that is in no way as good as Free Bedlington.co.uk Classifieds to afford that!

Here's to a lucky quid on the lottery!

ok the r8 is a supercar (a cheapo one)!

anyone else got a fav?

16k isn't really supercar money! you can buy a mondeo for that and there definitly not supercars!

mmm sporty not!

[mercuryg]

Since when was a supercar defined by its cost? twenty grand would buy you a nice 911 3.3 Turbo, for instance, or a Honda NSX, one of the most technologically advanced supercars ever built. Indeed, that Noble you picture - you can get it's predecessor, the M12, a supercar (with a Mondeo engine, as it happens) that will take you to 60 in under four seconds, for less than 20 grand. What about the latter generation V8 lotus Esprit, 175mph worth of supercar madness, or the supercar bargain of the moment, the Alpine A610?

really, unless your supercar has to be new, it doesn't hve to cost the earth. My brother has a collection of the things, a couple of Ferrari's, a Porsche, a very, very fast AMG Mercedes, and none of them cost him buckets! get with the picture, get real!

Me, i'm looking for a Lotus Excel, in good nick, and have three grand to spare.....anyone know of one, let me know.
