Scumball
I am arranging a stag do, the plan is to purchase 3 cars sub £500 and drive to Nürburgring ring and do a lap, question is what cars & is it possible to buy a wrecked but mechanically sound classic for that sort of money? we plan to paint the cars so bodywork issue no problem, obviously an sti is worth more in bits but what about a uk 2000?
My shortlist thus far, feel fee to add? BMW E36 328i Volvo V70 T5 Vauhall Omega v6 |
Mr2 mk2 is a good little car, think the classic would be very ropy as you said it's worth More in parts, cheapest I have seen they I would feel safe driving (make it there) in the road would be a £1000 with rusty arches

Did simlar thing in a V6 Cougar - handeling at high speed quite good. Could do with a turbo though!

Saab 9000 2.0 / 2.3 turbo.
The 2.3 maps to 250hp on standard "everything", and despite the size they actually do not weigh that much (about 1350kg), and also *very* comfortable seats on a run, which you'll be happy about on the way to the ring :) |

We did scumrun this year in a 1998 cat c turbo 2000. Paid £325 for it and it was a fantastic car.
