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?

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

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!

(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?!

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

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

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....!
