Nissan sunny GTi-R, a truly demonic car!

Jim, Mazda 323 V6? I know you were toying with the idea of one of these, are they any good? has anyone here driven one? Where is Zakk?

I've not driven a V6, but a few 1.5s, which might sound like toilet but it's a revvy little lump, based on the same block as the MX-5 (so it'll do 200k if cared for); they handle and steer like sports cars, the driving position and seat is sports-car-like, and i should imagine the V6 goes like a rocket... and it's got 4 seats and a decent boot...



but, the interior is Japanese - although much better than a Scoobys. They do a 1.8 too, which is probably a good compromise, but the V6 should shift.

here's another idea or two - Mitsi Galant VR6

or
Scooby Legacy, 4x4 turbo?

should get something like that for £3k...
or a saab 900 turbo (this one's £1795)

Scooby legacy is a FAST car.

Sure thats a 900? Looks more like an early 9-5 to me.

how about a rovor Coupe 220 Turbo??? get a very nice one and it has a T-bar roof

it's a 900 (not a 9-3 or a 9-5), the version with a shared (GM) platform with the Mk1 Vauxhall Vectra... but it's still a 900 turbo. i guess £3K would get a mint Mk1 900 Turbo

you drive one and you wouldn't bother - pretty fast (197bhp) but doesn't handle too well - really skitty and ragged..

Well I had a non turbo version for 5 years and yes I do know the handling is well as you put it skitty and ragged but I do believe that it fixable but still a great car for 3K
