whats the best car sub 100k on pcp?.

happycow6171 · 08-16-2014, 12:38 PM

Hi all, a few months ago was thinking of semi retirement.
Things are finally settling down at work now and I'm ready to take the plunge and chill out a bit more.
Looking at cars on pcp,do not want to put my own hard earned into a car, so will finance it and let the investments pay the monthlies.
The car has to feel special inside and outside, performance must be in the top 1%.
Would be nice to have some practicality, not essential though.
Any suggestions please!.

How about the i8 ?

Afy360 · 08-16-2014, 01:43 PM

911 turbo or gt3

Depends what your looking for! Do you want a two seater sports car, or a practical, comfortable cruiser?

Your biggest bang per buck must be a Nissan Gtr.
Practicality? Audi rs6?
911
My bmw choice would most likely be m6 gran coupe
I'd probably consider the i8 for the novelty factor too

How much are teslers?..

I don't think the Nissan GTR qualifies as feeling special inside and out! It is an incredible performance car, but leaves much to be desired in quality & refinement.

If its performance you are after, nothing this side of £100K will touch a GT-R.

Not brand new anyway!

335dJa · 08-16-2014, 07:00 PM

Or hold out for the new supra...

If you're looking at bang for buck mercedes C63 coupes can be had for under £500 per month at the moment.

I was thinking used, but not sure what APR you would get against a new one. Might well be cheaper going for a new one if these.

happycow6171 · 08-17-2014, 02:03 AM

The rs6 is a car that offers similar performance to a gtr, but is very practical, want something you can trundle about in one minute, then be a monster the next.

However to pretty much everyone one on the road or walking down the street, it's a Nissan.

Most people will go ' you paid what for a jap car?"

Whereas, German, Italian, British, they would not bat an eye over price.

Again, other than the track where do you get that performance?

The OP lives in Wales, so that performance can be used quite readily over there I'd say. I'm no GTR fan, but I don't think people would think it's just a Nissan. It has no Nissan badges on it for a start.

The BMW i8 is actually £94k as you get a £5k government allowance on it.

I'd stick with an M5. If your use to BMW's drive, you wouldn't like the RS6. It feels very numb in some areas. It's very fast, but a tad too safe if that makes sense. I work for Audi, but I drive a BMW for that reason alone!

The one up the road from me and at dealers definitely have Nissan on the back end.

While the M5 is excellent, for a lot of the good welsh roads it's a touch on the big side.

As OP say RS6 would tick a few boxes.

I admit I am biased to the Jaguar F type R, it has the looks and the performance and does turn heads - a bit thirsty though
