I can't decide.

The TT soarer is clean and well priced.

The FTO is very well priced and it's a facelift model, problem is it's up on miles and the last service was 22000 miles and 2 years ago! Either a stamp is missing or something as the car is immaculate and to keep a car looking that good and not servicing it just doesn't make sense.

Decisions decisions.

What sort of money are you looking at? Personally the Soarer doesn't float my boat, and i've not heard good things about them. As for the FTO, good motors, but a bit of a 'Jap Wagon' image. They all seem to have a 12" exhaust and a HUGE stereo....

well I had a V8 soarer before with no probs. And the old shape FTO aswell.

The soarer is half the price of the FTO but 5 years older.

What are these bad things you've heard?

Cheers,

Matt,

oh Jon - the TT would drive around your GTR!!!!

Ok - considered opinion now!!!

Soarer TT - Auto aren't they so I wouldn't touch it But I know you like autos

FTO - Girls car, my mate bought one for his bird

Why not get a 200SX, cheap as chips, and loads of mods around

(and anyway haven't you had both of the above before - you can decide )

Why not try something you've not had before...

Or why not go for a MR2 Turbo? RWD and rear-engined with 241 horses as standard. For the money they go for there's little else to match it pound for pound.

I've had most cars! Including a 200sx! Which was good fun - but I'm being offered a good deal on the others so don't want to start looking about for other makes.

Auto's are great Jon!

Have got the GTR yet?

GTR is outside my house now

Been having loads of fun for the last 10 days/1300miles of owning it

If you're in the area, I'll take you for a spin - hmmmm 400bhp
