What Car Should I Buy?

This is the man who cannot keep a phone for longer than three months- he'll have four cars during the first year.
Anyway, he's an IT contractor, he can afford to run his car on whale oil if he wants to so this part of the discussion is pretty pointless.

My previous car was owned by my parents from new in 1990 and only sold by them a month ago. I owned it for the last maybe 10 years? Phones are fun, cars are tools. But if I'm going to buy one I want a nice tool. :)
