    nothing to do @ work and I'm looking for a second hand car so to stay a bit on this topic: What would your ultimate car look like? What's in it? Extra features? Why would that matter and why not? What's necessary to make you feel good in your car? I would like a Porsche, but off course can't pay it ;-). A must in my car is a CD- or casetteplayer. And I don't like automatic transmissions :-D. hope to bring up some discussion here ;-). No hurries, no worries.

            Couldn't agree more on your choice of car. M BMWs are great. And the new 5 litre V10 E60 M5 looks really good. SMG 7-speed gear box, though - no manual option. Visit Riverside Internet[^] Visit Mike Puddephat Online[^]

              My ultimate car? The Skoda Superb[^]. It looks like the Octavia from a distance, but when you get closer, you'll realize just how big it actually is.

And I would like to have timed cabin heating, my neighbour got it in his Toyota Yaris, and I'm really jealous when I come out to a totally iced car in the morning, and his car stands there, totally defrosted, with a low humming sound.

                        Yep, E60 M5 is awful - I thought the SMG-7 was a sequential gearbox? :~ The M6 (here an ACS evolution[^]) would be my first choice. But even with a M3-E36 would I be very happy :-D

                                      On my travels, I rent quite a few cars (only one at a time!), and I prefer to rent an automatic. Less risk of opening a window when changing gear in these funny countries that drive on the right. And less familiarisation needed. That said, I always *buy* a manual. They're more fun, and I feel a little more "connected". But if I lived in a city, I'd go for an automatic. What was my point again? Iain.

                                        and don't worry about the music, just get an ipod with a cassete accessory or a fm transmiter (if you have a cd player only).;)

                                          nothing to do @ work and I'm looking for a second hand car so to stay a bit on this topic: What would your ultimate car look like? What's in it? Extra features? Why would that matter and why not? What's necessary to make you feel good in your car? I would like a Porsche, but off course can't pay it ;-). A must in my car is a CD- or casetteplayer. And I don't like automatic transmissions :-D. hope to bring up some discussion here ;-). No hurries, no worries.

                                          Mitsubishi EVO Lancer VIII. No mods, just one fantastic car. Manual of course. A good sound system is not needed in cars such as the EVO and your Porsche. The engine, the tyre on road and wind rushing over the body are all the soundtrack you need. regards, Paul Watson South Africa The Code Project Pope Pius II said "The only prescription is more cowbell.
