i had a thought the other day i need more power and wanna start on something new!

now i was thinkin bout sellin my car or seperatin it then gettin a new car! i would get a conversion but its a lot harder to get insured!

choices of cars:

R5 GTT - Cheap to buy, a lot easier to tune and get more power, spares are easy to get hold of, stylin needs work, 120BHP standard, beafier noise inc wastegate chatter

Clio 1.8 16v - had a clio before, av bout 140BHP standard but hardier to tune, look proberly the same as my old one when im finished so i will jus be repeatin myself

can some shed some light on my thoughts?

 

[powelly]

Would you really consider sellin your car after all the work you put into it?!

im on my mums insurance so i doubt theyll believe my mum is the main driver on a clio wit a transplant!

lot easier to insure a GTT and wit liverpool victoria its only £550 on the old ladies insurance!

 

[powelly]

[Essex_Lad]

i dunno jus had a thought the other night! wot else is there left to do apart from a full repsray and maybe a few odd bitz!

But now im more interested in power and racing at places like santa pod etc!

But well c how i feel at Donny and might put a F/S sign on it then and see wot happens!

 

[jabba]

GTT turbo power baby, yeah whole new ball game, youd luv it!

 

[Hollywood Hogan]

i agree with MR Slut

 

[RobFenn]

At least if you got a conversion the time/effort/money wouldnt be wasted.

They couldnt presume youre telling porkies if your mum got a GTT conversion, that would be prejudice.

-Rob

 

[Essex_Lad]

yea but for £1.5k i could jus buy one and then av the money from my car to tune it even more!
