    £30k to spend, what performance car?

    Apologies if the question comes across a little idiotic. But what performance car could you recommend that will not lose more than 5% of its value in 6 months to a year of ownership?

    Changed my engine and put everything back together. Went to drive the car and it won't go into gear only reverse, even then it just grinds and doesn't engage. I have tried the method of putting both the gear selector on the box and gear knob in reverse and it still didn't work
