Aggghhhh, want to buy a car

[imprezaworks]

Getting bored, quickly. After much consideration ive decided on the following

106 gti
vts
mk1 valver
williams, although i reckon i would struggle with my budget.

Will consider anything in good condition, low miles etc.

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

Was it you that just sold the Ph1 ?

 

[imprezaworks]

Yep.

 

[Bluebeard]

106/vts: No thanks i'd rather walk.

Mk1 Valver: Good luck finding a good one.

Williams: Again good luck finding a good one, although finding a good williams is easier than a good valver. Valvers got cheaper quicker whereas the williams stayed with the enthusast longer.

Whats your budget?

 

[imprezaworks]

the only valver ive seen is the one in 'other marques'. Budget £2000

 

[Bluebeard]

You will find a solid williams for £2000.

The thing to remember with them, they will only go up in value if you keep it standard.

I would definitely have a gti rather than a vts just because the saxo is the one car everyone thinks of when they think of barry boys

 

[imprezaworks]

The only ones ive seen Dan are with big miles

My thoughts too tbh

 

[Bluebeard]

Don't worry about miles.

Go on condition and service history and parts recently replaced. My mint one had 113k on it iirc and I still got nearly £4k for it.

Did you sell your Clio to save money or something? Not trying to rub salt in the wound or anything btw.

106/vts: No thanks i'd rather walk.

Such a way with words lol

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

Well I know that! I still remember first time I drove my mate's VTR, excited because I'd heard so many good things about it, and then I managed to squeaze into it and realised I could press all 3 pedals with my big toe.

 

[Bluebeard]

I can see why you'd want one if you were 17 and wore big gold bracelets, but other than that I see no appeal. Terrible build quality, terrible gearbox, terrible steering, terrible seats, stupid toy car pedal setup and made of tinfoil.

Horrid horrid little cars.

Designed to fit easily in McDonald's parking bays, with doors open iirc

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol. So find me a car then

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

E36 M3.

Edit: Take the £2000 and put it on red. Then buy an E36 M3.

 

[Bluebeard]

Lol. So find me a car then

For £2k, i'd buy something like this....

Then i'd do a couple of bits of tidying and sell it in September for profit. They also sound mental with a open cone filter.

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

Good shout! Anyway, back to Sons of Anarchy..

 

[imprezaworks]

had one many moons ago, great car tbf. and no to the bmw's

Incorrect sir, the steering is what a Clio can only dream of!

The rest is on the money though...

Its not incorrect, its just a different opinion to yours.

In my opinion, its s**t.

 

[Matthew]

It's so direct and full of feel though.

Depends what your looking for in a car I guess.

 

[Bluebeard]

I personally think its too light. Like a steering wheel on a car at the funfair.

 

[imprezaworks]

Something a little different to what i had really. As you may or may not of known id looked at civics, integras amongst other things lol. But something fun, cheap and decent enough to go on track will do me fine. And please no 'i should have kept the ph1' it was time to move on.

 

[Matthew]

An right, I'm used to driving them alittle lower than standard, so the steering was actually quite heavy.

flol, i love reading your posts :hail:

 

[Bluebeard]

How are you going to get a civiv/integra for £2k you weapon?

 

[imprezaworks]

Love you too. Im not. My initial plan 'was' to spend the extra and get one.

 

[Adam G]

Just go up in the world.........................































































Ph2:rasp:

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol.......no

 

[Feates172]

Double your budget and buy my S3

 

[Richyy182]

I had a 106gti many moons ago, good car but I'd agree time has moved on, unless you find a black one and it's standard, I still have a soft spot. Save a few more pennies and buy a Williams. Done.

 

[imprezaworks]

Im trying to get my hands on a valver, waiting to hear back

 

[Richyy182]

Quality - good luck getting one. I can't remember the last one I saw on the road, awesome motors

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

You can get a nice Ph1 for 2k these days...

Oh, wait

Impreza ?

:evil:

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol
