Currently running a 200BHP VW RallyeGolf, which is awesome fun, but waiting on the hard shoulder after almost snapping the propshaft on the M25 tonight (and going out in a mates Catalunya), got me thinking.....

How much is a good one (want to spend about 6 grand

Which model should I go for ?

Any Pitfalls should look out for ?

Are they expensive to run/service ?

Uk Turbo 208bhp/215bhp

WRX (import only on classic shape) About 240bhp

WRX Sti 276bhp but i think thats out of your price range.

 

So you need to decide how much power you want/need!! Uk Turbos do mid 5s to 60 with the imports obviously being abit quicker. Your looking at about 25mpg (or less depending on how you drive!)
