I've just been having a bit of a browse around, as you do, and I think a Skyline or Porsche of some description will be on my next shopping list (saw a 580bhp Skyline R33 for £22k ! yum yum).

What do you want?

I like this man - Skyline mmmmmmmmmmmmm NICE

Give it a few years though - might get a bag a sand trade in for me V reg Sport by then

Hopefully i'll have the money by then though

 

Then again there is always a Honda NSX mmmmmmmmm sweet

 

Honda Nsx is lovely with the right work done on it..

 

I would love to be able to afford a Chrysler Dodge Viper or a Jaguar E-type MK1, failing that, I guess a Skyline would do

 

This may makes me sound a little sad, but I want a combination of performance, looks and comfort this time.

I'm going to get a Saab 9-3 Aero. The interior is very plush and in the right colour (black) the car looks awesome

Kurt

 

Saab, summed up in two words - Torque steer. Sorry...

 

i thought it was one word yorkie....


vauxhall

 

I think I'd plump for a P1 WR - I've already got the missus's blessing!!!

Phil

 

Well it has to be an STi7 type UK doesnt it

Tony

 

Yorkie - you driven a 9-3?

Quite fancy a Saab 9-5 Aero HOT Estate in that subtle metallic grey....

 

330D Sport
It's on order and I can't wait.

 

Currently looking long and hard at a Caterham 7 Supersport.

Come next week I will have changed my mind as usual.

 

Mr Data, I think you want a nice 4 door wrx!

I am sure we could come to an agreement!

oh, and I doubt he has driven one, like most on here, very good at quoting the press!

 

My mate has driven one - real handful in the wet, and out of tight corners in the dry. I rest my case

 

(Jen using Chris' computer...)

Love a Skyline!! Although back to the real world (and my real bank balance) I'd love to pick up and "interesting" scoob such as P1 (the one I want) or an some form of Sti (the one Chris wants).

Who said having two scooby people in the house was easy?!

Jen

 

Hmmm tricky.... not that keen on the STi, bit too lairy looking for my taste, I'd prefer something subtle with 4wd and it has to be a comfortable and practical every day car, so:

1. Import WRX wagon plus Leda suspension, full Scoobysport exhaust, brake upgrade and headlight change. May be leather to. May be even a FMIC and no bonnet scoop?

2. Audi S3 plus AMD re-chip to 275bhp, H&R springs.

3. Audi A4 Quattro of some description.

4. Golf V6 4motion, plus AMD supercharger (300+bhp ) and chassis tweaks.

Cheers
Tim
PS SAAB 9-3 Aero is cracking value on import, and I'd ask TSL what to do in terms of tyres and suspension to reduce the torque steer. Bear in mind thought there's a new model out in September I think.

BMW 540i (2nd hand - depreciator) and/or Evo 7 (import & mod it) to replace Pug 406 V6 and/or MY00 modded Scooby respectively. Or a decent house in England and not replace

 

Waiting on the arrival of a STI UK Prodrive style Should be early this week!

Andy

 

Some oTher thIng has been ordered and will be here in a month Looked at an EVO 7 but wasn't that impressed.. just my opinion etc etc

 

Andy W - now you are a man of taste. You lucky person

 

i have driven an audi a8 quatro, it has more gizmos init than you can shake a stick at, and performance, well, tip-tronic gear box, 4.2 litre engine, oh my! shame i havent got about 70 big ones to spare!

 

heh, interesting thoughts... Definately a Skyline GT-R34 for me I think (find some absolutely *amazing* video's last night... dribble, drool, want one etc).

check out this sight and see if it doesn't make you want one

http://www.gtrcentral.com/movies/pages/gtr.htm

enjoy...

everytime i think i'll sell my skyline, i take her out, go for a 'spin'...then realise that theres NOTHING out there that will be able to replace her. so i just keep modding. interior next

for sheer character, there are few cars that can replace a scooby. but the GTR is one of them

 

ahaaa... Spudgun


Have you got any pics of your car etc? Not that I am going to get rid of my RB5 after 3 months of course ... Just want to 'fuel the fire' so to speak

M

 

do u want me to email u some?

 

that would be great where did you get yours from btw?

ta,
Matt

 

That 9-3 Aero 2.0T, was in one of last months car mags, featured in a column about imports. Apparently one firm was importing them at the retail price? and giving away a Ford Zetec 1.4 with each car.
Ford or suchlike objected to this, so they dropped this offer and were selling the Saab for about £16,000!!!, retail price, £24,500.
If anyones interested I will try to find the article for the importers name.

 

I'm going to chop the Scooby in for.....

1 off Old mans car (Jaguar XJR 370BHP)
1 off Nutters car (Fisher Fury with Honda Blackbird Engine (165BHP & 430Kg )

The Jag will be 2-3 years old (25K ish) cos I do a lot of Motorway miles and the Scooby is not that good at that.

All this happens when I get some money....!
