The prices appear to be dropping, I have seen them for less than Ł17k. Not sure if its the economy or the release of the mk3.

I REALLY liked it.!!
It looks and sounds awesome, i liked they way it drives to. Running around 400bhp, ksport brakes, airtec intercooler and exhaust, probably more aswell so had sum money spent on it. Just means I'd have to sell the sapph.

I can imagine it being good the one I had a shot of was standard, I've driven the mk1 and didn't really think much of it so wasn't expecting the mk2 to be upto much but I was surprised lol.

You gonna go for it?
