RobD Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 Insurance is 2700! I think we'll end discussions on an evo now Any ideas on what else to look for? It must have reasonably sized room in the back for my little one, and have some poke for daddy! I may just keep the supra and get a second car.

I was asked to PX my supra for one, they are very nice inside with room for a family in the back and good boot. Down side the MPG and unknown rotery issues.

Try the GTS. You can get a nice near 300hp from them and they are FAR cheaper to insure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 Isn't that an r33? I did really like the r33 but every chav and there mother's got one now and they aren't as classy as the supra! Suppose you can say the same about the evo though! I do like these impreza's... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1936572.htm It would have to be an WRX instead of a STI for insurance i'd imagine though, i quite like the blob eye impreza to.

They are fairly gutless unless you get an import.

I stand corrected, i'd have any of them! Black is definitely the colour to get! I still reckon the insurance will be stupid though! I'll get a list of everything I would like and get insurance quotes, then choice out of the ones that a affordable. I hope the r34 isn't to bad though, i've always loved them but I would feel like a judas to the supra! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozz Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 M3 saloon would likely be a dog for under 10k so I wouldn't go for one of them. You're looking closer to 15k for a low mileage facelift, 12k for a decent early model. Plus servicing/insurance costs will hurt. How about a 330? You'll get a nice one for 7-11k, I love mine, not the fastest but better than a NA for handling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevins Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Or stay jap and go for a nsx, silvia s15 with a 2jz in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathanc Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I have a 2002 330Ci with the H/K system. Its really comfortable, looks awesome, nice handling but a bit down on the power. I would recommend other choices unless you want something more "tamed" A bit OT, I didn't know 330s still go for that price. I went in a local car dealer trying to see if he got any interest in my 330Ci and he offered me £4000 for it. Just thought this is a bit low considering I just spent over 400 quid getting new discs and pads. Oh well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
