Suggestions on a new motor....
Looking for something different, got bored of my E30 316i, crave something a bit quicker.
Got up to £1800 to spend, and whatever car i choose must be as insurance friendly as possible
ideas so far;
Mk1/2 Golf Gti
Build a saph cos rep?
another E30 - 6cyl, 320i/325i
xr4x4 (insurance might be an issue? )
opel manta gte
Capri
Any other suggestions? stuck in a bit of a rut just now just fancy a change.

Don't know about finding one, I haven't seen one on the roads for years!
Is the XR4x4 insurance so bad? I know plenty of peeps that have em insured cheaply....

The V6 Xr4x4 is a great car, had 2 myself, a 2.8 and a 2.9. Go for the 2.9 
They love a pair of K&Ns and a back box, sound the absolute bollocks 
In fact I'd say they're almost as fun as a standard Cossie.

Coldo, mk3 fiesta base model, 2.0 zetec, suspension, brakes

The tail end of the car was facing the kerb on the corner Ie moving from the left to the right of the pic.
Saves thickos (ive had a few already) thinking it was just a pic of the car driving from right to left around a corner
