Be different mate! Exactly my thoughts. At least if you're going to get japanese, get something uncommon. How about a Capri??!?

Im gonna declare my mods and itll be a good 2 years before i reach the dizzy heights of 140BHP so by then it will be cheap insurance. I need the car just to have it standard for a bit til i can afford mods both buying and insuring. The install is gonna be the only thing in the car til xmas possibly. Need the windows tinted tho for summer! then it will be tiny bit by tiny bit.

Right im gonna whack it into perspective here peeps
Insurance is impossible on anything but the most mundane of cars,i cant get a performance car
As civics are far too rare and i need a car now,i have to get what i can find.
Been lookin all over auto trader and their are a few intresting cars
Mondeos and vectras 1.8 (nice motorway cruisers with lots of space
Escorts and 306s and rover 214/6 (nice small cars but hard to find a good one)
BMW 316? (insurance may be low ish?)
Get this car for a year then dump it and get a great car that i can fully pimp. I wont be piming a baby engined car again
Anyone got any suggestions for my next car
Lookin at spendin up to 2k but i wont get the money from insurance for a month ish so if i get desperate i may just have to get a {1000 pound car

If you are only going to run it for a year just get somthing cheap that wont breakdown all the time and save like mad to get what you want. Thats what i did to get and then mod the bm.
drifting drifting and yet more skidding

I dont have LOCAL papers up here mate. Auto trader has shown up 2 civic in a 40 mile radius. An LSi coupe and a 1.3 hatch. I think ill wait n e way so i can get a VTi. Get a run-around for a year to save like a madman then get a beast next year

Ahhh i thought you were still at home, do a search for your postcode for your home on the Wirral, then maybe have a look at the car when you get home mind you i dont know when you'll be back so that could be a terrible idea!
