Right! I think i have a serious buyer for the GTI who lives about 30 seconds from my house Trust me to have to make a 4 hour round trip to buy it and it was the only one in the North West for sale...anyway...

I should get about £6800 or maybe a little bit more for it but i can't for the life of me think what car to get The GTI just wasn't what i expected for anyone who wants to know why i'm selling.

I go to Turkey with the GF for 2 weeks on friday (Wooo fuking hooo ) So i will get the Trader when i come home and hopfully sell my car then.

List as follows for now....

1.CHEAP New Shape 172 Sport..seen a black one with 50K for 7.5K.
2.Another Astra but will have to be either 2.2 SRI or maybe 2L as the turbo's are too dear
3.MR2 Turbo...a NICE one.
4.Scooby
5.200 SX (GF don't like em though!)
6.Integra Type R

Now insurance is a problem with me being 23 but i might ring around and see what i can get on the Scoob and ther MR2 and if i can pay it off in full.I pay £900 on the GTI now.Tesco's are shit with mods so i might have to change anyway.

I feel the need for a Turbo again!

Tesco's are Ok but they won't insure me on a Scoob so i boubt they will on an MR2 Turbo

Colin mate i might be able to pay it off in one go if i get a cheap enough car ie for 5.5K or somthing but i don't mind paying a bit more than the £900 i pay now if i don't.

i'd definately go for the 200sx myself. could get a very nice s14a touring for £7k.

what will you keep longer, the car or the bird? if it's deadly serious and she hates them, then ITR would be my next choice.

with tesco they were prepared to insure my on a supra that had new exhaust and wheels (manual n/a) and that would of been less than 1500.
had found one but was unhappy with few bits and pieces so walked away.

the FTO ain't mind blowing but it aint no slouch. deffo quicker than my old puma and so that keeps me happy until i can afford something quicker.

its the GR version so 180 but can't tell the difference between mine and my mates Mivec.

thing is go for the car you really want.

i love supras but had always wanted an FTO. when i bought the puma i soon realsied my mistake but lost 1k on it in the mean time. when it came to change there was only one choice.

Or a BMW, get the straight 6 and you'll have a reliable, comfy car that goes quite well.
