Remember the black one at combe that once? Destroying everything??

Do it Do it Do it

are you an 80 year old????? that's not very nice :-(

nice idea but I wouldn't touch that one with yours, advert screams "Thor Motorsport cash cow".

What's insurance like?

If you want a sleeper... you know there is only one way to go. Volvo 340 + Clio Turbo Lump.

there was a 340 on cliosport with an F4R in it, guy only wanted £500 for it

And why wasn't i made aware of this?

you don't need any further encouragement

Pm me your username

It's only because i need a cheap daily to replace the disco

Bah i'd want a standard looking one with a 172 engine

good luck finding one :-P for 500 that'd do until you get bored

About 15 minutes?

Liking the carb idea though... maybe i will PM him...

oh this has city part two written all over it lol by the way ......is it finished yet????

tbh even if you only bought it for the shell, the f4r should be a straight swap for the f7r iirc, oh and guess who happens to have some management for an bodied f7r sitting about doing nothing

Haha... i need a daily... a cheap daily so i can use disco selling profits on the City

A quick ebay search show me i can have...

A MINT saxo...

Wow talk about thread hijack...

LMAO at the numper plate in the MX3

MR2 or MX5 is my vote. Simple RWD reason. You ever sat in an mx5 stu? Very small inside.

Possible bargin!

oi you bunch of spaffers...this is my thread!

you can pick a stagea up for 3.5k-4k, tempted as a second car and get a CTR as a daily. but then thats why I dismissed a BEC. grrr why is this so difficult.

I vote someone to buy that Volvo!

Woz lol just stick to the original plan of an S2K lol its not like you will be unhappy with it. Or your next best idea an MR2.

I am being draw back to the vx220 though

Like you said before though the VX220 lacks refinement. At least with the s2k and mr2 they feel like a quality product.

I vote BEC and a good daily... Simple.

As for MR2 being a quality product?!?!?!?

And Ad... if i were to get one it'd be stripped bare before i go it home.... could you live with yourself letting me do that?

Right adam... Find an MR2... For Sub £400... within 50 miles of me... and i'll get one. Ideally with Tax.

Orrr i could go back to what i love...

I'd have thought a Stagea being an import would be difficult to insure anyway - you're also inadvertantly wandering into Scooby Wagon territory too.

Get the S2k, at least you know you won't make a loss or have difficulty selling it on if its not right for you.

s2k , s2k, s2k, s2k - has to be in slapper red though

Wozzzzz...

I don’t need to defend mr2 built quality lol. You will find out toyota may have over engineered them a little if l find you one to strip down. You will be removing nuts and bolts forever lol.

£595 is the cheapest mr2 l can find. Will have to keep looking on e-bay.
