Guest Arctic Chill Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Bought my FTO from Vine Place and was very impressed. Maybe a little pricey but they do (generally) get good cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Arctic Chill Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Looks nice, what spec? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulp Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 Looks nice, what spec? its n/a so be gentle,full exhaust with 5" tail i think,hks induction kit,its a manual aswell ,18" alloys and its been lowered,its a full veilside but i dont think its got the rear spats, its the first time ive driven one and it surprised me how agile they are for a big car, even if i didnt like how it drove i would still have got it for the looks of them alone, i dont know what make the wheels are,i couldnt get a picture of it from the side cos these are just my phone pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Arctic Chill Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Is it quite quick, I'm torn at the minute between N/A manual and a life or a T/T and selling body parts for finance. Depends on if the N/A has a good bit pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on if the N/A has a good bit pace. it is quick yeah,is probably as quick as my mates golf 2.016v gti but i didnt open it right up bearing in mind my last car was a bmw 318is which was slow as fook so this feels a lot quicker, i went for the n/a cos i love the look of supras but couldnt afford a turbo one and had cash burning a hole in my pocket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Arctic Chill Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Mmmm........got an FTO mivec at the moment which is pretty quick. Mainly I want a manual but it has to be quicker than the FTO, The T/T obviously is, but it comes down to cash doesn't it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Looks nice very mate. I don't like the rear spoiler but apart from that it's lovely. full veilside but i dont think its got the rear spats I think you're right. They look to be toyota spats. We might be able to id the wheels if you get some better pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Mmmm........got an FTO mivec at the moment which is pretty quick. Mainly I want a manual but it has to be quicker than the FTO, The T/T obviously is, but it comes down to cash doesn't it. I've test drove a couple N/A's and my car before last was an FTO, the N/A is quicker mate. Looks a damn site better imo too! Paulp, nice looking motor and in the right colour! congrats! Your logic in getting a nice looking N/A within your budget rather than a rough looking TT is the best way to do it! I'm in the same boat as you budget wise but my mate bought the sweetest looking Impreza Turbo in Mica Red yesteraday so now I have no choice but to get a TT. I'll just have to save a bit more cash!
