Default Feck. Thats it, time to buy another car.

Its ALWAYS on ma mind (for years, since i had last one about 5yrs ago!) but that vid craig posted of his mates mad starlet has made the flashbacks too strong, i gotta do it
http://www.craignelson.co.uk/files/scotty2.wmv

Its time to find a cheap renault5turbo Just driving the Mongayo while finishing the GTR is no fun at all. I need another to fuck about with while i slooowly finish the proper car.

I miss having a teeeny tiny little silly go-kart thing to fuck about in, fast cars, but FEEL a 100 times faster than they really are, which makes them such fun (No car has ever came close to the way my old GTT used to fookin terrify me proper silly adrenaline rush, even tho the cossie was about double its power).

Standard looking, just dumped on the ground on std rims, with my own special breed of mods, and caged up with everything humanly possible removed (il cut away most the metal from the doors, tailgate, etc too i think, as its caged up) to make it light as.

I got a gearbox, a bottomend, manifolds, brakes, hubs, driveshafts, etc etc all here so plenty of spares (tho i chucked a load away a few months back ), just got to find a cheap reno5 now (needing work is no bother, as long as no serious crash damage), dont wanna spend more than 500quid on one really, still got the GTR to do, 250bucks with a blown headgasket/turbo/gearbox will do me fine...

Thought you were going to say you wanted a Starlet. My bro had an SR about 4 years ago with alloys and big bore. Looked a bit odd with the exhaust but went well enough.

The R5 Turbos go very well too but not a fan of the shape. Couple of guys round my way had them, one painted in a flip pearl colour, can't really describe it but the colour looked good.

Yea i am if its dead cheap (you about 400miles away tho! Im in gloucestershre, but can travel if its worth it) Find out what bits n what he wants for it, il have to fine a trailer etc but fuck it. If the rear subframe etc is all still there thatd be handy.

No, under 300bhp and 1.3 FWD.


Anyone else, yea, if you spot anything dead cheap il have it. MAJOR rust (ie MOT failing) i dont want, but minor dings n dents are fine, blown engine/box etc isnt so bad, and if the paints fucked- GOOD! Saves some money as ive decided itl be fun to spray it all matt black anyhow

yea, inc the std wheels
DIY, with spraycans, outside

fuck it, i wanna just make it some tiny lil fast thing, looking shite is part of the fun want to make it as least flashy as poss, all badges in the bin, all black, all stripped, saves me having to clean it, and saves worrying about paying to fix any scratches etc (And the dragon autosport RX7 drag car looks mint in matt black)

a set of 185/60/13 colway formula2's look like a good bet too

Yes, EXACTLY why i dont have it, lovely girl, fit as, but shes trouble, shel prob plant a bomb in the 5 or somthing bizzare before i buy it or summat

If i told my missus it was from her shed kill me

Get the number later if u can mate, but if u cant il be able to get it still i think...

I tried texting the number i had, not said delivered so dont think its the one.
Il see if i can get hold of Kelly, shel have it i think, or at least she can ask Nadine.
If worst comes to it il ask Wils or get Jamie to get it off Nadine, fuck knows, but if shel get rid cheap il have it.

I think its a non runner with no tax or MOT, so aint worth shit but fine for me.
