Default Which one 2wd or 4wd

I found 2 completely standard sapphire cossies.

1. Flint grey, 2wd, very good condition, owner is 70, 4 previous owners, 80k, wants roughly £3000.

2. Magenta, 4wd, again very good condition, one owner from new, full leather, 90k, wants roughly £4500.

I cant decide.

If you want to go sideways 2wd if you want to go point to point quickly get 4wd.

Both cars are going to be fast, but it depends like the other guys have said, what you want from the car...

2wd for rear end action, 4wd offers better handling but obviously a lot more controlled, and what might seem "boring" compared to the 2wd option.

Test drive both, and see which one you prefer...
