Help, please help,

I received a voucher for xmas to drive one of three cars:
Skyline R34 - 400BHP, Impreza 22B, Esprit V8.

Problem is I can't decide which to go in, the R34 or 22B - forget the Lotus it doesn't appeal..

I can upgrade to drive both but it'll cost me loads. I can't afford it having recently bought an STi 3.

Have any of you lucky bu99ers driven both of these two?
Which is better and why???

Please answer quiccckkkkk...

I'm off to Silverstone tomorrow and must decide there and then.

Nick

I reckon... if you've got an STI, I'd go for the Skyline, something totally different.

R34 it is I reckon. The 22B is a top car, but it is not any quicker or _that_ different to a normal STi. R34 will be faster, and you get to watch all the different dials too.

Cool

Thanks lads, took your advise. What a car..
So smooth on the track, amazing handling for a big car. Great whooosh of turbo noise, awesome. Went out as a passenger in a Cateram too. The dogs!!! Mental things, overtook a 911 RS no probs, those things fly.
The maddest thing i saw though was a MGF which looked (but didn't sound) standard keeping up with a F355!!!!
The 22B looked a beast too, but as I said earlier, I had to choose between that and the Skyline.
I'm having some piccys fowarded through the post on CD-R of me in the R34. I'll try and post them on here when I get them..

Spotted a few scoobies down that way to.. 'See Was It You' section.
