he loves fords

his current mk4 essy has cost shit loads to keep going

its on atm, 2nd engine, 2nd set of suspension, 3rd exhaust, and 3nd sump. and now 3rd sump gasket and its still pissing oil out

for its mot i rekon itll need, welding in a few places, new headlight, some filler for the rear arches, a bolt for the stat and the alt as a couple have snapped



now he will need a new motor id say £500 to 1k if he saves up
he wont have a corsa.

he wants it to be quick, a 3 door if poss, not to costly to run/maintain,
and not a pug,reno,citreon

what you ppl reckon?

Well the VTEC will be expesive to run, needs frequent oil changes, but if you keep up the servicing you can rag the tits off it everyday and it'll be fine!!!!

it would be a high miler for under a grand, maybe the 1.8 vvc would be just as good, or the newer bubble shape Vi????
