Something quick...
There's no corsa turbos around that are even semi nice / look half decent.
Clio 172's are all high mileage
What else? Small and quick please
Basically got £6000, but need to insure it aswell.
Was looking at lupo gti's, but they're all high mileage and all the mint ones are £7k+
Little help?

Engine + mounts - £1000
Gearbox - £200 shop around
Alloys + tyres - £100-300 - not important
Exhaust - £300 - again shop around
Cage - £0 - not needed
Insurance - £0 pay monthly
Also what you need to remember is this would be a project car so things like alloys, cage etc isnt needed straight away, just upgrade as you go along 
Worth it, im deffo doing it after driving one - Worth every penny imo

my insurance for a 200sx was cheaper than my let corsa also repair bills are alot less than a skyline and really if you get decent 200sx and spend a few pennies in the right places there isnt alot of difference between them and the sort of skyline you just looked at
i am biased though lol

Don't get a gts-t they don't look anything special and as said a 200sx would be as much better car all round with a bit of cash spent on it b
