Sorry for another thead like this, but i'm after a new car.

So no suggestions of 106's / saxo's!

I'm looking at around the £5500 - £6000.

I'm looking at a few Ibiza Cupra's, There's a LET corsa i'm interested in, any other suggestions??

It will be driven everyday, and it needs rear seats!

I'm 19 with 1 yrs NCB, so i can get insured on most cars, but i'd prefer to keep insurance below £2000.

Any other suggestions? Any cars i've over looked?

im not a fan of the cupra, getting a bit common and they all seem to be driven by planks near me.

200sx would be my choice get a minter for 5k

the only thing i don't like about the 200sx is... it's a 2ltr turbo RWD, i don't have much exp of RWD and buying the most popular drift car seems like sucide!

Or a really good idea unless you decide to try and "drift" after the 1st day of ownership!

Aye true, and if you wanted to get some kind of expience with RWD then you'd buy a shitty old BMW!

So whats the spec on the Izbia? and the Corsa your looking at?

TBH the 200sx isnt as bad as the MR2 unless its setup for drifting. Mates one handled superbly and he got big gains from exhaust/intercooler etc

But the MR is a totally different setup to the S14, for a start the Engine is in a different place!

Can't get a MR2, as it's only 2 seats.
