Darrell O'Neill Posted June 30, 2005 Posted June 30, 2005 Nice but I'd be looking at something bigger than a 1.4. don't discard the smaller engines, still quick enougth to fill your pants with!! I just thought that you had mentioned changing the engine at sometime and that looked a great car for the money... Good point, I hadn't realised what you were getting at. I think I'll look around for a basic engined model around £5k with the view to chucking another engine in later, as you suggested. That's what I wished I had done I spent 12 months seeking out the perfect car, travelling the length of the country looking I ended up paying over the budget I had set myself. Now I have her (and she's a cracker) everytime I walk in the garage the list of things I want to change, upgrade and improve grows but my budget has been exhausted for the moment Get yourself to a local meet and ask around, kick tyres and blag a blat As others have said the forum and club is a wealth of info and help. Get your wallet out and join up we're not a bad bunch really Quote
