another thread that has gone waaaaaaaay off the topic.
oh well, my 2p worth..
I quite often slate saxo's and tbh arguing that an mg zr (rover 200) is better than a saxo is like arguing that one form of cancer is better than another they're both shit to have!
however, in my experience of the cars i've owned (mainly jap and french with an embarrassing exception to some terrible rover 200 i had the displeasure of owning for a short amount of time) the best engine I have come across is the saxo vts engine. I doubled the standard power, track used it, abused it and it never once in 4 years let me down. May I add that no uprated/stronger parts were needed to be fitted to the engine to achieve this.
I HAVE owned a vts and I HAVE owned a rover 200 which is an mg zr without the bodykit and I can hand on my heart say if I had to have either again it would be the vts without a doubt.

some people love posting shit that has nothing to do with the question at hand lol
if you wanted a 4door, sub 7secs 0-60, and £3,000 ... why not go for a Jaguar X-Type 3.0 v6 sport: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3060335.htm
or even the 2.5 v6 sport: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2876749.htm
great cars, bullet proof, the most comfortable ride ever and meet all of your requirements lol
oh and anyone who has a brain cell will NOT pay anything more than £70 (scrap value) for a Rover with a fancy bodykit!

Wouldnt buy a jag as a performance car though.
if i wanted something decent to rack up some M way miles in, 2k for a jag isn't a bad shout.
Jag comes with a brand image, does ford?
