j_jza80 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Just sold the Jag so i'm looking for a fun second car again, and thought i'd ask you guys your opinions. Have around £1k to spend this time. Already have a mk2 Golf GTI so no hot hatches please, but anthing intersesting/fun that can be had for around £1k will be considered. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseys Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Agree on the Landy. Citroen LNA if you want to be an eccentric Mmmm... check out the dash! Reminds me of the Toby Turnin Turbo! 2CV? If you did consider hot hatches though.... Stripped out R5 Turbo? (I have a rollcage for sale...?) Williams Clio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_aero Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I'd go for mx5, 300zx or williams clio out of the cars listed so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love these z32s, not sure if i'm willing to risk the reliability, but they're definately up there. The have loads of presence on the road.

Tim_v_M Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Volkswagen Golf and the biggest hammer you can buy for the money left. Fun guaranteed. *Edit, oh you already have a Golf, than just a big hammer will be enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just happen to have a full Supra interior (dash too) sat in storage which I reckon would go in with a bit of chopping LPG is a massive plus too.

Safely Insured Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Crikey, I didn't realise there were any of these left! Fun little car but I have a hatch thanks. No worries.. its not a good suggestion by me to be fair as it will break and then it will break again and by the time you fix what breaks, they'll be rust holes everywhere..

ozz Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Without a doubt I would say a 4th gen prelude, 2.2 vtec. Should be a few around at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
