Sold The Vts...

[Tupps]

Picked the lad up from Darlington Train station on friday after work, Took him to my house so he could give the car the once over....

Paid with a bankers draft which i stuck in the bank on saturday and cleared today!

On the look out for a new motor now, in no major hurry as ive got a golf to use for the time being to get to work and back

Was considering spending around 5k on a Cupra but im still undecided on what i want....

Ideally i only want to spend around 4k so i can have a decent xmas, stick money aside to pay next years insurance off, booka holiday and still have change

Suggestions on what car to get?

- I dont want anything SLOW
- Want something new'ish + low miles
- Don't want terrible MPG
- Reasonable Insurance (4 yr NCB and 22 yr old when renewal is due)

So far ive thought of

MG TF 135 (i know im gay, hairdresser, i love boys who cares gtf)
Astra Coupe
Golf
C2
172
Megane Cab

Help!

T

[Robb]

out of that list

golf or c2.

you change your car so fucking often.

[Barry123]

considered derv?

[Hughey]

172 ftw

[Tupps]

Yeah i wouldn't mind a diesel sayer...

The golf im using now is a 52 plate TDI - Rollin on 18"s innit

Lovely cars to drive, soo smooth

[betty02]

Ever thaught of an Audi TT or that to expensive?

[Scattle]

172 tbh.

[Tupps]

Ever thaught of an Audi TT or that to expensive?

Could probably get a 3-4k Loan and do a Danny, look at cars like a VX220, TT etc

Rather just pay cash for a car then stick money away each month - then when i have 4-5k in my back burner look at cars like that

[vidal]

Don't laugh.

[leeroybrown]

Give me a shout Tuppence if you want to go and look at some cars

[Robb]

*snigger* @ vidal

Tuppy, I would love you if you got a TT.

[Tupps]

Looks a decent motor V....

Tupps tryna get jiggy in a club

T - "want a ride home hot stuff"
Hot Chick - "sure thang big boy, what you drive"
T - *slams head off nearest table*

[rushy_23]

I know you said your going off the Cupras, but what about the Cupra Diesels?
172 i doubt would be good on fuel? Probably average like.

[betty02]

Still think if you can get the funds then get a TT

[vidal]

One VRS doing the rounds at the moment is this one. (http://www.custom-code.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=46)

0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds
0-100 mph in 10.1 seconds
0-150 mph in 32 seconds
1/4 Mile in 13.1 seconds

Costs a few pennies, but you can always eat these...

[dsh85]

tupps join the tt club!

out of your list id say the 172

hows about an a3 1.8t sport?

[David]

I was gonna suggest an A3 too...

[CampDavid]

306 GTI-6, old now, but 4k would buy a very low millage X plater. Best handing front driver IMO ever

Teggy type R

Accord Type R

BMW 328i

BMW 530i - I'm amazed at how cheap these are now. Rediculously good cars

Golf GTI MK4 of some nature

MX5 - NOT GAY. fact

Porsche 944 - High risk.

imprezza - Non modded classic would be cool

[betty02]

imprezza would be good agree there david

wap a poll up of what you want

[SaxoJamie]

I'd go for a clio 172. Good step up from a saxo, not expensive, looks good, fast

[Dan]

I would have said the golf out of the list or a 172.

Gti-6 would always recommend one.

[leeroybrown]

for me it would be

172 cup

Intergra type r (JMD) spec

328 3 series

ford puma racing

[RedB]

Civic R (old one ftw)
TT
Integra R
Golf

In that order

[Ruddy]

Tuppence you emo fag gtf tbh ill kick your fookin ed in.....

[RedB]

Why did you sell anyways bud? i would've stuck tbh
Whats the fundage raised from sale?

[Japman]

clio 172 id get mate,great looking car

Hairdresser car tbh

[Tupps]

Ruddy your a chav roid head.....get out my thread before i knee cap you

[betty02]

Agree with Vidal, although not in yellow. My dads got the black one, eats VTS and the like for breakfast, and it looks the nuts dropped 35mm over standard 17s, proper touring car look. Goes like the shizzle, Autocar timed 0-60mph in 6.7s and 0-100mph in 16.7s. VEry quick motor, plenty of toys and cheap these days. Only downside is the mediocre badge...

[Ruddy]

Ruddy your a chav roid head.....get out my thread before i knee cap you

But father you said never again.............

Tuppence Ruddys getting a golf :bored: soon...........

[Crunkers]

A3 1.8T ftw. 3 doors look a hell of alot nicer than 5 doors imo

[Karl]

Ibiza Cupra mk3 on 51 plate,
that would do it for me.

[laura_g]

MGTF all the way

[Japman]

MGTF all the way

gay plus..........www.headgasket.com

[Tupps]

GavJapEye....

You know much about the stats regarding the headgaskets?

1 in 20 i think had a dodgy headgasket, only caused by skimpy maintenence and not checking the water levels etc?

Sounds alot 1 in 20 but if you look after it all is well with them

Mid engined rear wheel 2 seater convertible.....2002'ish with around 40k for 4 grand

Deal imo

[Japman]

Nope but i know alot of mechanics that have them in as a weekly replair lol
Personally i like MG ZR's......nice loooking machine,pity about the engine

Yet i also know someone thats had a TF for 2 years,no problems at all

Spice up and get one

then change your job to an hairdresser

DEAL TBH

[Tupps]

change your job to an hairdresser


Change your job to an english teacher.

What about those V

[Karl]

Tupps mate, you have eyes for bargains.

[VTR_Nick]

think it would have to be the astra or the clio to be honist

[Japman]

personally dont like them
172 FTW

Cheap as it is

[Karl]

Id look into a 172 also, for the pure fact I want one. :p

[Japman]

agreed,nice car

plus they are quite cheap on Pistonheads

[Tupps]

I have a mahoosive eye for a bargain....

Loan + Car sales company = Wedged Tuppence?

[Chris]

172 = New Saxo

TF = The survey says "Eeet Urrt"

Astra Coupe = Only the 2.0l Turbo or the 2.2 are worth getting.

Octavia = Very nice car, all the mod cons, leather, great performance and it's a VW at the end of the day!!!

Golf = Nice cars, but a bit bland.

Chris :)

will end up in huge dept

Bankrupt

[Tupps]

Cheers Chris...

A mate of mine just bought a 2004 coupe turbo, 18"s, stage 1 kit on it and its running 234bhp

Absolutly stunning car, if i was to get a coupe it'd have to be the turbo (which would mean a little more saving)

I paid £6500ish for mine... I'm 28 and I pay £300ish insurance... Tax is £205 a year... MPG isn't much... great car to drive and nice luxury feel if you get the full leather interior.... heated seats... cruise control... a/c... trip computer... loads more!!!

Chris :)

[CampDavid]

Astra coupe is a fine barge, though I don't rate it's chances of keeping its value, the new VXR's price is in free fall, as are most turbo hatches

Save a little more and a nice 328i BMW could be yours

[Tupps]

His is the same spec but its a 2004 with 30k miles.... and climate control instead of air con

Paid £6,500 for it

[CampDavid]

Sheedy but FG

[Chris]

Well I paid £6500ish in August 2006... mine is an 02 and it had 43K on the clock I think.

[featherz]

172 great cars, cheaply built like the saxo, but fun on road/track!!

[Tupps]

Prefer comfort and looks over fun....would have kept the vts if i wanted a fun car

[leeroybrown]

Tupps

The woman of this world have made you toooo soft ;)

[Jungle_Jim]

172 great cars, cheaply built like the saxo, but fun on road/track!!

build quality of the clio (interior wise) is much better than the saxo imo, still french mind

[craig180]

Knew it wouldn't be long;)

I would get a 172 after being hunted down by a 182 driver at the weekend and bum fecked on a motorway sliproad - you know who you are mofo:p

Either that or buy Danny's TT so he can get one that works properly

[leeroybrown]

i missed that craig!!!!

Would have like to have seen that ;)

[Chris]

Insurance on a TT at 22 would be silly money!!!

Chris :)

[SeriousSaxAppeal]

How about a C2 VTS...? :)

[Hanuman]

whyd he sell the vts didnt he just get it?

golf gt tdi anniversary

[Tupps]

I owned the vts for around 5 month....

Sold it as i got bored of it - honest it IS possible for saxo's to get boring, aint that right danny

[Wayne]

clio 172:y:

[nazz1]

honda civic jordan

[Steve]

c2 VTS (fast good mpg and look good now i think) or an ibiza cupra diesel (suprisingly fast and very good mpg)

[craig180]

Anyone suggested a Fabia vRS? VAG quality and invincible engine

[Steve]

honda civic jordan

thats where its at

tbh integra type r white or yellow ftw

what am getting next fuckers :afro:

[Luke]

C2 VTS mate.

I'd love one and nearly bought an '07 plate one before I got the Focus back. Awesome little cars to drive.

[Chris]

or an ibiza cupra diesel (suprisingly fast and very good mpg)

I'm looking at these at the moment and the cheapest one I have found is £8250 which I don't think is in his budget range!

Chris :)

[Krys_23]

clio 172 all the way :)

[MiniGibbo]

im affraid im going to have to vote for the e36 6 pot :afro:

[laura_g]

[QUOTE=Japman;1671473]gay plus..........www.headgasket.com[/QUOTE

Yeah not the most reliable of fings but they look well nice ;)

[Jamie]

If he got bored of the saxo he will get bored of the clio after all its just a faster better built saxx

[laura_g]

Yeah im bored of my clio want something more exciting

[Tupps]

Still very undecided on what to get....

Golf - TF - Clio 172 - Megane cab... Something nicely modified

I have no idea

[laura_g]

A street ka

[Tupps]

Thats TOO much of a sex change tbh

[SeriousSaxAppeal]

Hehe, I take it you're a dude then...? :p

[dan_87]

172...

[Tupps]

Negotiated the owner of his down to £3700
