What a daft statement lol...

Maybe people want to go fast but don't have 800k in the bank to blow on a car..?

[WILLIE-SAXOVTS]

i thought that renault 5 gt turbo got voted the worst car for problems ever made ..... i remember hearing that one time


mite be wrong

[RossBWFC]

come off it a glanza v turbo would wipe the floor with both each car is a nice one to have and own but thers no comparison renaults would die first with a stupid fault of some sort and saxos hit 40 when starlets hit 80 and i am a vtr owner a glanza would kill mine and has in every department just look at youtube

Would pay to see you leave a glanza after reading your progress thread.

Seriously quick cars! with very little fettling can see over 170bhp which is plenty fast. And with a decent enough set of springs / coilovers they can handle just aswell or better than a VTS with the same setup?

VTS is ONLY 120bhp standard which in reality is piss poor. sorry to say it chaps but the glanza is 130bhp standard and weights less, even if the saxo does handle better standard you will ave to brake very late into a corner to catch up with a glanza and dream on about going past him.

Unless your colin mcrae and the person driving the glanza is going backwards.

Its a shame citroen / peugeot dont put more power or thought into theyre cars as standard, renault do and they have a massive sport line up and each one is better than any equivalent from citroen / peugeot hence why pug have given up the GTi dream and left it to people that know what theyre doing like renault and toyota.

flame me!

120BHP out of a standard 1.6 16v engine isn't that bad, especially taking in to consideration when the engine was developed. Any engine which is the same size has an array of different bits and bobs to add more power. Mainly variable valve timing. If you really think about it, its not that bad.

theres much more cars in a similar price range that id have i think

i love a clio 182 trophy, but realistically, is it the best option for £7000?

a trophy is one of the best handling FWD cars out there, a lot of stiff chassis cars can get up on 3 wheels,

i would have the vts or a R5GTT, i hate jap crap, as blackie pointed out there have been some awesome R5's infact i would say its one of the fastest cars ive ever been in the first being a saph cossie 4x4 and agrees with the how much you want to spend on power gains???!!!

mate had an insanley RAPID r5, he was a gypsie and somehoe acquired it through some mean, was blisteringly quick, id say it had over 15k under the bonnet, and about5-6 year ago that was alot of money on an engine alone, long story short he was wanted and dumped it after being chased off the police(cleanly left evrthing for dust) but they bumped into the car searchinf later that night and it was the last that was seen of it,

[blackie_2k5]

BUT... theres better about and quite simpley a car that started life with 4 wheels shouldnt corner with 3 IMO, not saying it doesnt handle well for a fwd car, i like them but there is better and with the moeny we're talking id buy something alot diff tbh, my lass wants a 182 lol, just learning to drive, said id make her a look a like so shes happy

i like the 182's a lot. i just think for £7k i'd pick something different, although the renault would be cheaper to run than most of its "performance" rivals in the same price bracket

if i was looking for a decnt all rounder with 7k id go for an 00'ish impreza decent cond low'ish miles say 3-3.5k for the right car and spend the rest on tuning it, even though im not a great fan of them, it works as a good fast car/drivers car/family car/ weekend track slag
