right i got my00 turbo 2000 but im havin probs insurin it for less than 3k which is a bit silly really, especially as i had a leon cupra r with 225bhp as standard when i was 19 and insured it for 2200 fully comp lol. so im thinkin bout gettin rid of it. got about 5k to spend, but insurance dont really wanna be more than 1500-2k. in the past i have had 106 rallye, honda integra type r, leon cupra r, clio williams, ow the scooby, so none of this lot. i cant really think of anythin i relly want apart from mayne a clio 172, then spend a bit of money putting the hp up to around 200-210 then maybe strippin it out. any1 got any suggestions, they gotta be as quick as any of the other cars i have owned. cheers.

You might get an early CTR for that price, but it would be pushing it. How about a Mitsubishi FTO? They still look good and the list of potential mods is endless.

drove a ctr and it aint got a chance against the itr i had, to bland conpared to the integra, just a fast family car really, itr was really good, but didnt rally like the vtec engine, was crap below 6000rpm, then a huge jump in power suddnely over 6k, which was a bit weird. had to thrash the crap out of it to get anywhere. not keen on fto, even the v6 is slow. looked at mazda rx7 but huge petrol consumpion and the fact theres about 100 different models is just to much lol. plus rebuilds needed often and big repair and maintencnce bills. 172 is lookin faverite at the mo, but still wanna hear more suggestions.

s14a 200 SX

You'll get a really good one for that money but after I test drove one last week I'd admit it would need a few mods to make it feel especially fast. They're much, much cheaper to insure than say an R33 GTS despite the power to weight being very similar.
