Not sure, maybe blue with gold wheels but it will stand out, trust me.....

My Budget.... Erm, i dont really have one bud but i want value for money. Would like to stay within 35k but i was even looking at a 2.9 sierra for a few grand.

I have done the flash car thing and i have another 7 cars to smoke around in if i want to drive something different.

Im after something like my MK1 escort cosworth, i was scared to drive the *****g thing, it was awesome omg

you sure you want another subaru, with the trouble you had with the engines in your last one, and i always seem to hear about subaru engine having problems,
i would get something like a mk2 escort with a cossie lump in it, or even a escort cosworth, they seem to hold there value

The scooby engines were my own doing, I kept on pushing for more and more power peaking at approx 400 BHP but i never had strenthened internals due to costs.

I should have had all the internals strenthened before i pushed for huge power gains. Standard my impreza ran 215 BHP, i nearly doubled this figure so something had to give as the standard engine was never designed to withstand 400 BHP omg

I have to admit i am very tempted but i could do with shifting the Range Rover first unless a really goods offer come along.

I can get the newer shape Impreza STI UK Type with 22k miles that is only 9 months old for £17,000 cash think

Very tempting indeed......

Ferrari 355?

I've got my eye on one myself and you can pick up a minter for 35k.

OR an MR2 turbo with the Ferrari kit. You can pick up a good one with all the ferrari badges and interior for around 13k. Standard 0-60 times are 5.6s and 1/4 mile 14.3s.

Failing that i'm selling my Skyline (380bhp) if you're interested for £8500.

Jay how many rs500's do you see now days???

Unless you go to a show you just dont see them

Scoobys are ten a penny at the moment nothing wrong with them but there are plenty about.

If it was me then a rs500 would be the one.

RWD a classic and a verynice looking car good tunning options and plenty of stuff on the market.
