I think people who buy a CTR want a quick reliable new motor, not something thats over 10 years old and breaks down every 30 seconds Speed isn't everything

id rather have a yugo

i don't know whether i like them or not, personally i dont think they are styled very well as said before with the breadvan looks plus they are getting very common now. Thats not to say i wouldnt have one though, it's just if i had the money to buy and insure one i would prob go for something else.

Can't fault the engine

Who said slow

For the money a very nice motor

Jap cars may be expensive if they break down but no more than you would pay on another car around that price range plus jap cars don't often go wrong
