Default Im after a sapphire cossie!!!

Can anyone help?
How much would i be looking to pay for an average mileage standard 2wd any colour?

Are 4x4s more common than 2wd's?

And what should i look out for and could someone explain what stage 1,2 and 3 is and what power each stage should give and the rought cost of each?

Thanks for the help

2wd are more common.

Stage 1 - Chip, raise boost, retains standard yellow injectors, upto 270bhp

Stage 2 - Chip, more boost, light green injectors, up to 300bhp

Stage 3 - Chip, even more boost, dark green injectors, 3 bar map sensor, up to 330bhp


Prices start at 3k and dont think the more you pay the better the car! You'll see some right sheds advertised at 4.5k+ and some tidy ones at 4k and under. Just look around as much as possible.

Agree, 2wd are far more common. But they are proberly slightly cheaper. You could be looking at 4-5k for a resonable good 2wd/4x4. But expect highish miles. if you aim for 5.5/6.5k youll get a gooden
