Im selling / possibly scrapping my focus as it keeps breaking and I cant be bothered to fix it! its a shit colour shit spec etc tried selling it when it was MINT for 9 months and no one wanted it!

So i got £1500 to spend inc tax mot and a few months insurance.

So far ive looked at

Toyota Celica GT

MR2 GT

MR2 turbo with fucked HG.

Honda prelude 2.2 vtak.

Is there anything else I should be looking to buy ? Ideally want something already modified so i dont get tempted to spend more money on things I dont need!

I was looking for vr6's but cant find any in price range and they quite slow for the amount of fuel they sap.

BTW i need something im comfy in as a 22 stone 6ft8 person. I fit in an mr2 like a glove, and a mk3 golf. I dont fit in the focus the dash and speakers get in the way, and ive not tried a celica or a prelude yet!

For reference im 22 full license no crashes no speeding etc, the prelude was £550 a year FC inc roadside assistance, legal cover, and mileage upto 10k a year!

Many Thanks!

 

mate PM kelv,,,,,, the luck hes having with hes car im SURE he would sell it for buttons at the min pmsl

 

I know someone who would take the focus off your hands aswell... Local to plymouth also

 

focus is going into an MOD garage club thingy next wed so im hoping everything will get fixed but its still going lol.

 

ST24 mondeo.

 

I know a guy selling a bmw 328i sport 2 doors leathers auto etc etc £1450 if you want any more details pm me.

 

328 sounds like a good idea

 

yes it is a very nice car and it is clean i can vouch for it.

 

Yes, would agree with that. Look on the STOC. I prefer the ST24 to the ST 200.

 

seen celica gt4's for cheep money in the trade, one was a proper thing with no mot for 400 quid,i bet a turbo would cost more than the whole fookin car.
it had a few scratches and a cracked screen but the motor sounded great and there was no rust at all.

 

mr2 turbo with HG failure - dont!

can pick them up for cheaper than that these days and they dont have that many problems! GT4's are going cheap and are pretty nice drives.

prelude - watch for dreaded rot around the windscreen, boot under the number place and also back arches are a killer on them as well. roof seals around sunroof are prone to leaking as well after a while... but overall mechanically theyre sweet as a nut if looked after. 2.2 VTEC is the only one i'd even think about going for as the 2.0 is quick but not that quick.


celica GT - if its an early model look out for sills, doors at bottom, and again rear arches being rusted... engines are getting a bit rough on them as well on the earlier import models if not serviced regularly.
