Surely worth buying for the scope it'll give you to start 3 or 4 threads on the subject alone... plus you could treat yourself to the numberplate 'V6____2PAC' to complete the package mate.

drove a few when my old work used to import cars (mainly renaults from belgium due to them being cheaper than main dealer) wasnt that impressed to be honest, unpredictable handling which could be fun at times but made having a proper blast in them impossible plus they were no faster than a clio sport imo which isnt that fast at all by todays standards,
but will they be a future classic? i think so even tho my ex boss lost 12grand selling the one he had kept for himself till he got bored lol

Handling is supposed to be strange lol, this has coilovers all set up and apparently is far more predictable, but as said i dont care i know its not fast infact std cosworth fast looking at the figures, its just an everyday car for me thats a bit special
