Oh, so many cars to choose from. I'd go one good car, I can't afford the running costs on an older car :togo:

A BFII F6 Typhoon, full options. Nothing to spend except insurance, fuel and servicing. $75k

And an 05 Toyota Corolla Sportivo as a daily driver for me and my g/f to share. They pack a punch for a corolla! About $20-23k

Keep the change for bills
