Citroen C6

Johnny first recommended drivers purchase the Citroen C6, which can be picked up for anywhere between £2,000 to £8,000 on AutoTrader.
The French company's flagship executive model was produced between 2005 to 2012, and boasts a plush exterior design which really impressed the car enthusiast.
It's a very different looking car, but incredibly cool in my opinion.

Johnny said: "Every so often, Citroen decides to bring out an absolutely stunning car - many of which end up being worth a small fortune at some point during their existence.

"I reckon that the C6 is ripe to be one of the next examples of this as it's a very different looking car, but incredibly cool in my opinion.
"The exterior has really clean, flowing lines and the concave rear window is a stunning feature too."

Used car buyers will be shocked to learn they could own a stunning Porsche for less than £10,000.
In fact, the Boxster 987S can be bought for as little as £8,000 - but could be mistaken "for a new car".

Johnny claims the motor's design is "timeless", with many enthusiasts willing to pay a lot to get their own.
What's more, you get plenty of punch for your dough - with the Boxster 987S and its 3.4-litre, flat-six engine able to go from 0-60mph in just over five seconds.
JAGUAR XK8

For those looking for a picture of speed and refinement, the car buying expert recommends the gorgeous Jaguar XK8.
Johnny said: "Taking the top spot we have one of the oldest cars on this list, the old-school Jaguar XK8 in XKR spec, meaning you've got a lovely 4.2-litre V8 engine that makes 400bhp, taking it to 60mph in 5.2 seconds."

What's more, drivers can find the Jaguar XK8 for just £5,000 - with some costing as little as £2,000 on AutoTrader.
The car's sporty features make it stand out from other motors with its unique front end making it particularly eye-catching.
Johnny added: "It was the successor to the XJS and took a lot of inspiration from the stunning E-Type Jag, particularly around the front end."
He added: "For me, it's a very balanced design which will stand the test of time."
