Ment to be good cars. My mate had a rep looked well smart i think.

BM08

I can count on one hand the amount of times ive seen one on the road in years.

They look cool, but i dont think there up to much performance wise.

Probably similar to a 1.8 16v escort

They are SHIT REALLY poor build quality..... My mother in law had one, and I was forever sorting it

Surprisingly fast, and handle very well (A LOT better than a 1.8 Escort) but they don't take miles well as they're built really really badly.

They're quite quick. Around 7secs to 60 iirc. Handling sorted by Lotus, so is ok

but look shit and built shit

funny you post that lol

last week i was on my way home late one night so flat out, at about a ton on the m4, passed one of those and he obv didnt like it. he would then cain it off and go past me again, then slow down. while i kept a constant speed and passed him again.
this went on for most of my way home lol

they are a bit quicker than a 1.9hdi citroen dispatch van, and rightly so lol

About Ł14k I think...

Evo running gear is fairly easy to fit iirc, was almost tempted when I bust my Evo4

AlexF

If by that do you mean "don't you care what other people will think of you if you drive that?"

Alex - not a fickle fashion following tart

We've all gotta start somewhere

My 1st car was a brown mk1 fiesta...

my mates took the piss - strange I got there long before them. Walking takes so much longer than driving! LOL

Obviously not and fair play to you.

Let's look at some of your previous "people point and laugh but I don't care" cars:

A Mini painted by a retarded 4 year old
A mini with red door mirrors
An MGF
Another Rover?
A 928

There's a man who genuinely doesn't give a shit



I always liked the Protons as the old boy had a dealership in Egham, many years ago. The white knight kitted Proton was legendary. I can't find a picture of one! But I remember razzing them round when I was 17 and they were about 3 months old and thinking I was the bollocks

just pulling your plonker mate, i know from working on the a/c with lotus that they are an underrated car. do you think i care what people think of what i drive? look at my fleet, i have a fiesta and a galaxy

serious question though, how many cars do you need at all?

AlexF

HEHEHE I know you are matey

I dont need another one - this could replace the trackay golf and the sciento every day car
