will be finding out from the insurance 2day about my car!!! with havin 2 claims n only being 20 reckon im gona be gettin a cheap car but droppin an engine innit!!! 3 options are a nova with a 2, 16v calibra engine! fiesta with rs turbo or rs 1800 engine or a ax with vts engine!!! wot u think or ne suggestions!!!
all sound like a good choice mate. hope your insurers pay mate.
VTS an AX, they are rare and a suprisingly good car to drive.
I have seen VTS supplied and fitted for £1600
Probs best to buy a 95 - 96 1.1 forte (like mine) as they come with all the mod cons like the GT body kit etc but usually tend to be in far better condition that the GT's and GTI's
i can get the engine and running gear fitted for 3ton just need to pick the gear up first!!! how much would a good 1 like urs cost ax???
I bought mine for £800.
I have seen them as cheap as £600!
A mate was selling a gorgeous black 1 the other week for 400 because one of the cylinders was dead
There all a good choice, but 2 many peeps are gettin the fiesta's. u shud deffo go for a AX! if not go for ur 2nd option, the Nova.
do this! do this! not one of your options, but that dont matter
before
after
Under the bonnet
an RS turbo fiesta sounds like a good idea though! but do what YOU want and not what other people say...there are tonnes of different things you could do with small cars and big engines. hope you find what youre looking for......just please dont get a nova

I dont understand... whats so bad about having a Nova???
its a nova! to own one of them you require the following:
a shaved head
a burberry hat
a lacoste tracksuit (jogging outfit - cos thats what it is!)
Then you need to drive around trying to race anyone you see. Theres a lad who lives by me who fits this description perfectly and he drives a Nova!

my ex boyfriend was nothing like this. My best friend has one too! You shouldnt tar everyone with the same brush.
Nova's are always gonna have a scally/boy racer image, no matter who the driver is.
Imagine pulling up at the lights in an AX VTS and killing a festa RS Turbo, how funny would that be, a shopping trolley killing the "ultimate" boy racing machine.
i have to aggree with ben on that only scallys drive modded novas. i hate novas. they look so dated. and the scally image aswel.

I said in a previous post that I wouldnt get it one, infact I can remember saying that you would only get me in one if it was rather nice.
Does this actually have anything to do with this topic???
ax 125 wot does ur car come with i.e e/w, power steering???
It comes standard with GT body kit, electric windows, remote central locking, AX sports seats (much more comfy than GT seats) a fairly decent radio and thats about it
For the prices of an AX, its closest rivals dont compare, specially over rated German tanks.
Mine will do 60 in about 11.5, and thats from a (virtually) standard 1.1 engine. For all its faults, it is a fantastic car to drive, if i meet ya some time, i will take you out for a spin innit.
If you get an AX, you will be sorry when you get rid.
cheers dude nice1!!! defo considerin 1 phonin a citroen scrappy 2 c wot vts engines and running gear they have 2day!!! mouch room for wheels!!! would go 4 16s and 60 mil drop!!!
