Needs to be slightly driver focused, petrol but will consider diesel. Budget £5K or under really

Hi bonesetter, make sure you have a good drive in a Vrs, my pal has one and it does feel fast for all of 600rpm and then that is it (diesel power),, the handling was poor, front end pushes away in the corners and very very boaty, the traction control was just annouying, even when you turned it off its not.. Ow and no left foot braking.. not really driver focused unless you spend on suspension re-map and brake up-grade.. This is only my opinion and yes i do know it has many good points aswell.. cheers and good hunting..

Thanks for the heads up. I bought one yesterday. An black 06 61K miles, full leather minter for £4.9K.

I know about the understeer, butt his is fixable with Whiteline rear arb, the reat I'm too fussed about, the car will be a DD, I have my Type R still .

I looked and looked, and the VRS diesel was the only one in the finish, I know the drive's a bit rock and roll, but I think I know what I'm going into, but time will tell I suppose
