I miss my STi 4 everyday m8 but buying a house was the sensible choice. Give it a year or two and ill have a seriously looney car again and my OWN house at the end of the day. You know it makes sense

does your local bus service do monthly tickets or similar? ive started busing it in, costs less than petrol and parking charges as well. 
 
Cars will always be there m8, they are not going anywhere. If you want a really nice EVO id go for a 6 TME Monte carlo version. Will be worth the wait, and argulaby (sp) a better car then the P1.

Plenty enough power for anyone if transmission and chassis are up to the job.

Rover and calibra will be off the road all the time, or iceman will be splashing out on keeping them running. 
 
MR2 for 2k is gonna be shite imo. 
 
Ice id get some sensible transport for a while, mondeo or something. Once youve bought and refurnished the house the nice car can come later.

Its a VW, it its been serviced properly throughtout its life then its reasonable to say that it will be highly reliable.
