Default which car?

hi guys not been on here for a while and i,m thinking of going for another scooby?
after breakin my neck and been flat on my back for weeks so now i,m all plated and screwed back together and only got 4 more weeks in this brace i,ve decided to get another toy,but unsure what to go for?

focus rs mk1
cosworth (but need something for every day use)
bug eyed sti
allready got an evo 7 which is a good car(which the other half drives most of the time)

i had a classic RA about 18 months ago and my brother pestered me for it so i let him have it(which i regretted)
so i,m after a bit of help

i use to do the odd track day about 5 a year,so i,m askin how good is the sti and how much can it take?
i know about servicing and maitaining the just woundered how they cope with about 330 bhp?

my old RA








one with our evo



just not sure

Ive just got myself an sti bug having previously owned a few classics including 2 RA's. IMO there isnt much out there for the price that beats the sti bug....ive seen them as low as 4k, when you consider it has the 6 speed, brembos, stronger engine than any classic etc etc is there actually a better buy for the money?

With supporting mods the bug sti can take 450 bhp.
330 bhp is nothing for it really.

As above for the money the bugeye is a great base car it just depends on what you want to use it for, if you want to mod it, and other then you current EVO I don't think the rest of your options would be as much fun or as practical.

Good luck
