We recently shared our thoughts on what you should be buying this year if you were to be in the very lucky position of having £100,000 burning a hole in one, or probably all, of your pockets. But what should you look at if you don’t have such a sky high dollop of cash? What if you were to, say, halve that budget?

There’s quite a lot of temptingly good stuff just waiting to pounce on your unsuspecting cash. The second hand car market may be on the up and up, but that doesn’t mean everything you could ever want has disappeared across the horizon.
Oh no, in here you’ll find such legends as the Mercedes-Benz SL or BMW’s brilliant little 1M coupe. Or if you want something more recent but still excellent value how about an Alpine A110?
These are our thoughts, but we always want to know what you think? How would you, or will you, spend your cash? Let us know in the comments.
