Most cars loose huge amounts of money...if you buy a car only to sell it, then send your money on something else....lol
They will only be around 500 in the uk (Mk1 and mks2 total) by the time they stop selling them, future classics I would say, and I intend to keep mine for many years, they...

Some of that maybe down to the mileage I reckon? I remember a Top Gear shoot out years ago with two Golf GTis, both std, one with 55,000 miles and one with only 5,000 and it was amazing how much more quicker the "Run in" 50k one was.
Most Multi valve cars get better with age :)

OK kiddies you keep burning up and down your little 1/4 mile piece of tarmac, as if it makes a difference.....LOL ;)
I would still prefer MikeTs 440bhp V6 than anyother car here, even if it hasnt got a 1/4 mile time? :D
Simon.
Well if were are talking only CLIOs (as this is a CLIO site) then MikeT will get my vote, at 330bhp per tonne it has to be one of the fastest here?
Simon.
Yeah anyone that goes 2.5 x the 30mph speed limit should loose they licence for a very long time and be made to retake the driving test as they have forgotten how to drive with the safety of others in mind.
I can not understand people coming on here and defending the guy or should that be...
I dont reckon Fords are much better than Renaults at reliability or service centres myself.....if all had wanted was Reliable, I would have bought Japaness...so I dont reckon that could have been his main reason?
