Hey guys, just sold my Mini so i'm on the hunt for a car that is all ready modified, coilovers OR decent suspension is a must.
I've got 5 - 6.5k to spend and i'm looking around Type R's at the moment.
Any links would be great or suggestions  must be group 17 or below no higher.

Why FWD? If i wanted something for the track i'd be going for RWD.

The s2000 was never wrote off, it's recently been sold by the garage i traded it into.
The mini has been sold outright for a profit infact.
Going to look at the red civic as the spec looks impressive .

Yeah that's me, going to view it tomorrow or Wednesday i reckon . To make it to facelift looks wise is it just, headlights, rear lights and front bumper ?
You sorted anything yourself yet ?

Just mainly annoyed that I spent £60 getting up there and then it gets sold for less then I offererd
Yer to make it look facelift you would need lights front and rear and bumpers. Would need mirrors and wings to make it 100% (due to idicators moving to the mirrors)
You said that you thought the engine bay looked untidy but thats because it has a RBC inlet and you have to cut/bend the body a bit to get it in. Ace mod though its like the diablis/mantzel on a corsa
Plus as its mapped on all that stuff the power will be alot lower down and smoother. Completly different car
