Hummer under $30k
In Britain, £15,000 buys you a mean and miserable family hatchback.
Well, we wouldn’t actually call a 2-litre Ford Focus miserable, but it’s not exactly the last word in feel-good motoring either.
ver in the States, however, $30,000 is serious money for buying motors. Sticking with Ford for a moment, $30k will buy you a full-on, pimped-out V8 Mustang with all the trimmings.
The entry level V6 starts at $19,000. Very good!
But the new Hummer H3 surely delivers the ultimate road-borne bang for your buck.
Try this for size: in excess of two tonnes (4,700lbs to be precise) Hummer heat can be yours for a preposterously parsimonious $29,500. OK, it might be little more than a re-bodied GM pickup.
By US standards the 3.5-litre, 220hp V6 may be thoroughly anemic.
It’s probably cheap enough to ruin the Hummer brand in the long run.
