Yayeee! It's working again. Missed me, guys??
Status report: Still got £150 golf Driver, looking for a new car. Considering....
y10turbo.4t.com - he wants a grand for it
Xsara VTS - these have depreciated savagely and now represent plenty of bang for buck
Nissan Figaro!!! - dare me!
Also in the running...
Honda CRX Del Sol (I like the big electric rear window and the targa roof plus the VTEC engine)
Mazda MX5 Turbo (hairdressers car with hairdryer attached to the engine)
What you guys reckon?
Who said that. Speak up.
MX-5 turbo.

Get a Figaro!! I dare ya!!!
This one, you can get a pretty new one, with low mileage, and plenty of toys for silly little money :)
second that, get the proper BBR stage 2 at 250bhp i think or abouts and the car weight is under a tonne! OUCH! :)
Consider yourself well and truly dared, and think about running all week on an ammount of fuel that would make a smart car look thirsty.
You know you want to.
Yep, they're a great buy at today's prices. You don't get the 306's 6-speed box, but you get the same 167bhp - easily tweaked to 200bhp+ if you like that sort of thing.
The Xsara VTS is the only thing worth having from that list.

Yeah well there were only ever 850 BBRs made worldwide and not many of those were Stage 2ers. I do agree with the BBR thing though - you can actually get an insurance quote on one of those as it's an "official" car, unlike the GREDDY or HKS kitted ones. I'd be far more inclined to trust a BBR one too. Dammit there was a BBR on Autotrader just last week quite cheap and it's vanished...

Bloody hell! I just got an insurance quote for one... I think that's off the list for a little while.
In Aus they are bringing out factory turbo MX-5s.

Was one outside our work couple of weeks ago.
One of the Sales guys bought his missus an MX5 standard , then he turned up in a BBR, thought maybe he got bored with his A3, but he hasn't been in it again since then. Didn't realise that they were very rare.
Eugh !
Bargain ! Buy it quick !
Dammit too late :( OK which one of you lot got it since I let the cat out the bag?
There is, however a nice Punto GT in my locality for £1750...
GT Turbo 1.4 or HGT 1.8? I love the Mk1 Turbo's, they're sweet, 130bhp, 60 in just over 7, if its a lower miler and its been looked after, go get it :D
