I just came up with a whole list but the computer restarted They were a few off the list, if I can remember what I wrote i'll edit the post

theres a Vauxhall Carlton Lotus for sale on the wirral in a garage, dazza nos where it is

They out accelerate a 911, 377bhp @ 5200 rpm

Lol, sorry matey.

With a budget like you have I guess any car for that money would be delt with by the appropriate agents.

I personally think a 2WD Saffy Cosworth (You have mentioned it before..) Fairly chaep to buy, modable on the drive, more fun than any 4wd Impreza....

Anything else could be too expensive to chance playing with, at least with the Cossie if something goes wrong its not the end of the world, and 1/2 the fun is having the ups and downs with tinkering and getting your hands dirty

Footballs buy cars that are "Somit special", everyone who enjoys cars buys a car and then makes it somit special

Lancia Delta Intergrale'

Stuy, your a man after my own heart.....

I would rather have a £3k cozzy and have to play about with it occasionaly then a £50k porsche, luxury cars are boring and very expensive, trush me i have found out the hard way

if u wanna really get into something why not build a 7 style kit car? im sure with ur know how and budget u cud have a right toy

Just found this baby.......

that'd be sweeet. is it 330BHP @ .5 bar boost? cos thats incredible.somethin tells me its more like 330 when the boost is upped,but its currently set to half a bar. Not sure on the wheels either (look more at home on a jaguar) but it'd make a gr8 drift machine and with a change of wheels and some gfx a really nice car.I wouldnt say no

must say does look extremely nice, change in wheels and i like it

lets see what mr mac has to say

Certainly looks the part matey


Not sure its been built for the UK roads though, the bodykit looks like it would last 5 minutes, along with the exhaust.

For a track / drift car, it seems ideal, but for driving on the roads... Its gonna be bumpy as hell, scrub rear tyres with camber and be very light at the back end.

Also not sure what turbo it will run to get 330bhp at 0.5bar (a small turbo would need lots more engine work to get that power at such low boost ), it may be like the blue one I had, boost at 5000rpm, but when it comes in.....

For a dedicated drift car it looks a great carto get in to the D1 stuff with

But for driving on the roads etc, I just think it would be too much....

Lovely looker though

Needs Chunky phat white alloys with blue and red writing on them lol

Right, i have just telephoned the guy and he will take £7k for it.

Its running 260 BHP at 0.5 bar or 7 psi boost, he has ran it occasionaly and on a rolling road with a bleed valve at 1 bar or 14.7 psi and this is where the 330bhp comes about.

Not advised really as the fueling does not match the air flow and we get melted pistons

7k could get u a bug eye scooby couldnt it,thats what i'd buy with that money
