What a wonderful luxury!
Reader Tom has really only three criteria for are to buy a car: a price somewhere under the $ 35k, baking with driving pleasure and a low depreciation. Sounds plausible, but should not live, work, mileage to be traveled? No, Tom gets within a short time, a company car and so is ‘t only to the fun. Worth mentioning: he lives in Flanders, so if we also take into account wanted to keep with the Belgian and German prices. We do, of course, only too pleased, because that provides budgettechnisch just a bit more clearance than when we have to go Dutch prices. The criteria:
Current /previous cars:None
Sale / lease:Sale
Business / private:Private
Budget:€ 35.000
Annual mileage:< 5000 km per year
Brandstofvoorkeur:No preference
Reason to purchase another car:Fun/investment
Household composition:1 adult + 1 friend
Preferred brands /models:German brands
No-go models / brands:Everything is unreliable
Tom has already looked at the RS4 B7, the S5 and the RS5. Of the former are few beautiful items to purchase and the RS5 is still located slightly above the budget. A preference for Audi seems so obvious. Furthermore, our applicant will have the following requirements, then we move on to the suggestions:
I’m looking for:
– a car that I used in the weekends ride can join. Or even if the weather is too bad
– With loads of fun and less than what status
– Where the depreciation of a deal
Or ideally, where the value remains stable or will rise
Let’s roll!
Porsche 911 (996 or 997)
It starts flauwig to be, but with these criteria and the corresponding budget, you can’t to a nice 911. The prices of especially the 996 will probably not continue to fall, in terms of driving pleasure, of course, you nothing lack. A GT3 (whether that’s a 996 or 997) with this budget just is not feasible. A tight G-model, in contrast, work again, as it is also something more.
Audi TT-RS
Tom loves Audi’s and so it pays to also in that corner, look around to noses. The TT-RS is, especially in light of the earlier cars that are already viewed are a fantastic choice and reasonably immune to strong depreciation. Point of criticism is however the fact that the pleasure of driving perhaps not of the large.
BMW M3 [E46] with manual gearbox
Especially if you are not too much mileage, is this what stable value of your motorhome is an excellent choice. Driving pleasure is also guaranteed and for the musical accompaniment ensures, of course, that genial six-in-line. Do you there is less value to cock than a nice E92. In Germany, there are enough within the budget, all with about 100,000 km on the clock. If it is a serious blow to more expensive can, go for the genius of the M3 CSL.
Audi R8
Yes, he is actually just a little to expensive. With our German neighbours cock, however, you a tidy R8 of the first generation from a euro or euro 42.000. If there is something stretch in the budget, this is not a crazy choice. Suit if you really want to ensure that the depreciation within the limits continues to be a V8 with manual gearbox.
YOLO! Maserati 3200 GT
Or value well drops or rises, does, these Italian actually, not very far. The regular maintenance will you still feel in the wallet. Yet we have somewhere a presumption that the 3200 GT with its famous rear lights good klassiekerpotentie. Choose within the budget the best ones you can find (must succeed), and in particular, about a year or so to know if our feeling was right.
