I'll be 21 soon so insurance should be cheaper.
looking for something turbo'd or vtec maybe
Want something that goes to 60 in less than 7 seconds and i will have around 4k to spend. Has to be a comftable ride aswell.
Group 16 insurance max!

What did you have, and how much power were you running?
Mine's running 200BHP and it's pretty damn quick, especially for what it is. Runs 0-60 in high 6's..
You won't get anything loads quicker without spending loads on insurance i.e. Scooby, Evo et.

2k vts, + 2k engine mods would be rather rapid.

Having 4k in cash one week and a saxo with money fired into it youre never gonna get back the next sounds pretty gash to me..
Depends on what youre looking at man, S4s are pretty cheap now - Youll get E36 M3s for that money if you dotn mind doing a bit of work on them etc.

200sx?
2.0 Turbo
RWD fun
£4k would easily get one running 300bhp+
Insurance group 17 though
EDIT:

N/A Supra

It will be in bad nick but it's still a DC5 so you'll still be happy

this is true, but you wont be happy with a n/a supra, because more people TT them and an n/a isnt all that fun, + most on the market are auto imports

N/A supras are dog slow, id be pretty amazed if a moderately tuned VTS didnt sit with one

Dropped a ridiculous amount on the 'hypothetical' quotes I did.
Same info, but DoB changed by a few months so my age was 21. Most things were at least £2k cheaper.
Actually can't wait for December!

What about a Nissan Pulsar GTI-R???
They are cheap to pick up, most probelery could get a good tuned one for about £4k and they are flying.

insurance will rape his ass on one of them and they do about 9 miles to the gallon when you give it some . bloody fun cars mind
how about a delsol Sir? mines quick, comfy and people are always suprised at how nippy she is

Mk1 Audi TT. You could pick up a tidy one for about 4k.
I agree with the 200sx comment must be up there as well.
172?

Surely a 200SX would be relatively expensive in terms of insurance, no?
For some reason I fancy sound loud lary RWD jap crap, but wouldn't want anything slower than the Golf.. If I could insure a 200SX at 19, I'd consider it..

200sx isnt actually that bad in terms of insurance i had a quote on one ages ago and was good

Del sol's are for girls.. theyre to fat and ugly to be fast ;) :homme:
Id recommend an m3 but you wont afford that so my bets going on a 200sx in this thread.

Are all S14 200SX 2.0 turbos? What about S15's?
I did a quote on a '99 S14 200SX earlier (just a 200sx, not a touring or anything) assuming I was 19 and had 2 years ncb.. Cheapest was 3k, but that as on monesupermarket, I imagine a specialist insurer would be a darn sight cheaper!

2.0 turbo 200hp.. its basicully the jdm equivalant* to germanys e36 328.
All the sound ones now are 99% of the time auto but its a easy swop if you want a manual.
