As the title says, I just won 100,000 on a TAB Multi, haven't even got my P's yet and was wondering what a good car would be inside my budget. Would like something I can legally drive on my P's (obviously). So far I'm thinking of a BMW 135i Convertable, or a Volkwagen Golf R.

$100k.. hmm.. not enough to buy anything too extravagant and realistically, if I won $100k I'd put it in a term deposit or some kind of stable investment which earned me interest over the years. Yes I'm boring but I can only fit one car in my garage (and no street parking where I live).

But if I had no car, I'd probably go for a used Evo 9 and a BMW 320i with all the techno luxuries.

Also I wouldn't mind a used CLK500/E500 (last gen) since they look good and aren't too exxy either.

Yes, put it in a term deposit or something. With in 10 or so years you will be a millionaire.

Put in savings account, forget about the money and work your way through uni.

Honestly the best thing you can do is spend a modest amount on a car (if you don't already have one) and save the rest of the money. If you actually did win that much money, you have a pretty unique opportunity to invest in your future (house for example). You'll thank yourself in a few years time.

If I won $100k - I would spend $30k MAX and save the rest. Cars depreciate in value.

yeah get a decent car for 20-30k and fucking invest the money, cars depericate while investments grow. You finish uni and already have your term deposit for your house, never become a renter and be one step ahead of everyone else.

This.

Just throw it on a fixed deposit in a bank earning you 6% pa for 5 yrs or something, beats wasting it on a car (unless you're rich...)
