Which car would you buy?
Good news - I was in an accident and my car got written off...
Well kinda. With the insurance payout + what I have saved this year, I can now afford a car costing £17,500!
What second-hand car would you buy?
Im thinking of either: Audi A5 or BMW 3 coupe - about 3 years old/ <40k miles. I don't think my insurance nor my fuel money could handle anything over 3.0 litres.

A5 3.0 Tdi
A5 is a good shout.
or A6 maybe?
or if you wanted to go a bit older could get a decent M3 for around 10k but tend to be 3.2l which is probably what I'd do personally.
Out of curiosity, what car did you have?
Edit: After looking at the 3 Series Coupe. Get one of them. or a Convertible Hard Top same shape.

The insurance and maintenance cost of an M3 will kill him, put it this way i can insure an R8 cheaper than an M3.
orrrrr if it's within your budget with insurance go for a C220 Merc, Bro in-law has one and it's absolutely superb to drive.
