Should I sell the 2.1 RS turbo?yes, it's in "cars for s
Recently I bought Jons old 2.1zvh 288 bhp red rs turbo, which is one hell of a car! 
, however, after spending a grand on it in the last month I do still miss the old rear wheel drive!I'd really love a white 3 door again, then again, I still want an Elise or an Evo 6.
It's one hell of a beast, everything's nearly new on it and I really wanna go and have some fun in it(I want to do 0-60 in the late 4's).
Shall I sell up and start saving,shall I keep it and use it for gods sake! was anyone who was interested in it before still interested?did I buy it on the rebound from selling the Mk 2 as I had cash burning a hole in my pocket?
I've only done 400 miles in it since I bought it as I've still got my rally/drive it once a month head on.

If you want RWD and are used to Rallying, would make more sense to sell Andy
A good car will sell with the right kind of advertising, Jon AFAIK only advertised on the BB's, try in the mags or similar

Lewis' old car was HIGHLY advertsied in Performance Ford mag and EVERYONE who saw it recognised it from somewhere or another
If and 'IF' it was advertised in Fast Ford to sell and they picked up on it and did a good ad, then maybe you could, I dunno

It's not that I don't like the car, it's great, but I just miss the rwd after giving up the rallying and need another toy.The other thing is, and this is the problem peeps have had when they've bought my old motors, it's still Jons old car, no matter what I do to it.
and, I've been over to see a mate of mine yesterday, he's got a BDA powered Gartrac Mk2 sat in his garage, he wants £30k for it and it's awesome!I really want it(I'm gonna see if he'll let me post some pics soon)
He has mentioned however a friend of his is selling a mk2 Harrier with all steel bottom end and it's a MSA logbooked car, which although is a rallycar, is more road car than stage rally.I sold the mk2 and gave up rallying to sort my finances out before me and the wife have Andy jnr, but I reckon I could get away with a nice road legal mk2.
I'm gonna use the series 2 and as Rudey says, try and break some records to get a name for it, but if I get an offer, she's gonna have to go!
