was going to see a 200sx s14a tomorrow and it looked perfect etc etc, but ive been let down and hes not selling it now due to this, that and the other (likely story).

cant find any that match my spec anywhere else and im desperate to get a car as im dying without one.

so what car should i now start looking for.

- 200bhp
- RWD preferable but not a major issue
- has to be fast obviously
- no higher than insurance group 18
- not a "hot hatch" or hatchback

:)

sorry people, was a bit vague

£4,500 i got to spend on the car

300zx is toomuch of a silly car for me, easily over grp 18 insurance
evo just too expensive to run
z car saxo, ive had enough of saxo's, sorry :)

nope not for drifting exclusivley, for getting from a to b. id just prefer RWD so i can when i want to.

cant afford insurance on either :S
