Cars around £6.5k

[kev999_VTR]

Ideally after a clio 182, as they seem to be around that price and appear to be good all round.

Would like all the extras like climate control etc, so has to be a modern car.

Have been looking at fiesta ST but dont know if I like it.

Any other ideas?

Thought type R's were around the 9-10k mark for a decent one?

Fiesta ST :D but i would say that wouldn't i!! lol

[Danr]

Build quality is excellent, i have nothing other than a saxo to compare it to tho!! All round it's a much much better car than a saxo imo safer...newer...more reliable... better quality and i've also found that it's cheaper to run than my saxo was!! :err:

[Danr]

They are all decent cars man. Just depends what you want them for.

For me the integra would be the worst lol. I'd go for the astra!

[kev999_VTR]

Hmm...maybe a type R then.
Ill have a look in to that.
Cheers buddy :y:

[Danr]

Good luck matey, once you start getting into that price bracket loads of options open up. You never know, you may become the next Tupps and have one after another ;)

Not a fan of the ST personally, looks crap imo. Either the Type R kev, or the Astra ;)

Yours was the tits. Should of sold it to me imo.

Lol, no offence of course, I'm confident your far better looking ;)

Smooth.... like velcro :)

[leeroybrown]

They are all decent cars man. Just depends what you want them for.

Lets sum it up

Civic type r - Looks like a twat van for special kids...needs ragging to get the best
Teg - Born to be driven hard and well....the best by far
206 gti 180 - Peugeots crap attempted at trying to make a excellent hot hatch like the 306/106....might as well buy the hdi would be more fun
ST 170......Only decent thing about this is the colour...only made 1 decent st and you cant get it in this shape
Ibiza turbo - Have to be turned highly to get anything good from them....even lowered they dont do corners
Leon Ibiza - I like.... still cant do corners....the titanic come to mind
Triple 888 astra... if you like blue smoke....by a vaxhall...parts are stupidly price

SO

Teg is the one to get

EXCEPT

182 trophy/cup...now thats fun

[Crunkers]

Smooth.... like velcro :)

lol cheers Dan :y:

cheeky sod

[kev999_VTR]

Think type R's are quite good looking cars, just my opinion though.
So far def between that and a 182.

[leeroybrown]

182 has the fun factor

makes you smile when you drive one

Old people drive hondas

[MikeCracknell]

I wouldn't buy a fez ST...ask anyone on here, I used to be utterly obsessed, and it was the only car I wanted....then I drove on to Scotland and had use of it for a week.

Now I would never buy one!

182 or Focus ST

[Crunkers]

Think type R's are quite good looking cars, just my opinion though.
So far def between that and a 182.

Type R's also have the big reliability factor mate

[kev999_VTR]

182 has the fun factor

Old people drive hondas

Old people drive pink honda jazz's, lol, but they also drive saxo 1.1's!

[kev999_VTR]

Type R's also have the big reliability factor mate

Only trouble is the insurance is a bit more on a type R, but not alot more.

[QUOTE=leeroybrown;2498156]Civic type r - Looks like a twat van for special kids...needs ragging to get the best A huge amount available, very decent reputation and good resale value. Look very sporty compared to their poverty spec. Girls love them.
Teg - Born to be driven hard and well....the best by far Getting old now, dashboard is shit! Very thirsty on motorways due to close gearing?
206 gti 180 - Peugeots crap attempted at trying to make a excellent hot hatch like the 306/106....might as well buy the hdi would be more fun Imo, very nice interior, again look sporty compared to the others in the range. Can be quite quick. Quite cheap parts
ST 170......Only decent thing about this is the colour...only made 1 decent st and you cant get it in this shape kind of agree with you mate. Suppose they make good motorway cruisers
Ibiza turbo - Have to be turned highly to get anything good from them....even lowered they dont do corners go's... ttshh if you buy a dump valve ;) Look the part compared to their pov. specs. (personally, i wouldn't
Leon Ibiza - I like.... still cant do corners....the titanic come to mind
Triple 888 astra... if you like blue smoke....by a vaxhall...parts are stupidly price looks the fucking tits straight out of the factory. Should hold value pretty well. Something a bit different

Different things for different people. To me the clio would be to small!

[leeroybrown]

so what we decided then dan

182 lol

[Danr]

so what we decided then dan

182 lol

to small in the rear. ;)

[leeroybrown]

[kev999_VTR]

Maybe ill get a fiat panda :y:

[kevinvanj]

hay bud. mate of kev's. i got a mark5 gti golf and for your money i reckon a mark 4 gti with a remap or the seat leon. both have got better extras than the others and better rated. had a type r, great fun but annoying on motorways!

[Crunkers]

Maybe ill get a fiat panda :y:

Sorted lol

[Danr]

take the seats out then

Not the most practical Mr Brown :cool: ;)

Hm....was thinking a golf, but im not too sure on them any more. Bit too common for me now. Maybe the leon though.

[Danr]

Golf is nice but i'm sure the equivalent Leon is cheaper and more original.

[leeroybrown]

HA HA exactly James

[Crunkers]

Seat Leon Cupra is also the sex

[Tupps]

Leeroy says 182.....

He speaks sense

However, he also works for F1 team so is a tad bias and slates every other car

182's are perfect

[Danr]

[Cal]

Waste o' money tbh Danrrr... nice seats... few other choice mods... jobs a goodun

[DarylVTR]

[Danr]

You getting twophie seats?

[Cal]

You getting twophie seats?Yeah kind of... got better ones than them. Sportlines... Trophy's have Trendlines.

[Danr]

I love it when you talk seats to me.

Anyway... back to £6.5k cars.

[leeroybrown]

z3 my god now we have gone to new levels lol

Question

What do you want from a car?

[OLLYVTS]

What about a audi tt,you can get them for around 6 grand or a mazda rx8?

[Jazz]

shat mark 1 type r

only decent thing there dan is the teg

No they're not shat you dipstick :P

Not as good as the facelifts obviously, but Honda's Type-R range are probably the best for that money. Integra will give you unparalled fun though with that B18C engine. Accord Type R wil give you some saloon sophistication thrown into the mix also :)

Small hatch choice would be 182 Cup.

[Danr]

who would of thought, Jazz chose an accord typre r. ;)

[Jazz]

who would of thought, Jazz chose an accord typre r. ;)

Surprise surprise :P

Depends on what he wants for the money, small nimble hatch with good economy, Clio 182 will fit the bill better than CTR, bigger hot hatch CTR will do it, coupe- Integra DC2. Accord Type R is just as much fun to drive but is just, well, bigger lol.

I'm not saying the Type R's are the be all and end all, some may hate them and thats fine, but at that money they're certainly worth considering, thats all :y:

don't have to preach to me buddy. I love them.
Although i'd rather have an audi a4. :P
