imo id get an old porsche 944 turbo but thats me lol
i wish lol would cost a bomb to insure!
Yep think i might get a vts if insurance is under 2 thousand,if cant get insured on a a vts then do conversion at later date!my sister had a white vts but sold it like a month ago for a fiesta st but she misses her saxo's handling,lol!
thats a good point mate might lower it!
lovely saxo their,loving the wheels!
ill get a picture up of my sister's one she sold a month ago!bloody heck thats a loss!
here's a few pics of my first car(current)and her old vts:

ME and barron (my brother) bought a track car between us.
Im 20 he is 18.
We bought this, it is alot of fun. But do not set a budget for a car and not think about all the running costs and stuff like a set of track tyres uprating the brakes and all that.

Id get a Civic VTi to be honest mate if you can get a decent one for 2k, they make 158bhp and fairly rapid.
And itll be more reliable than the GTi and VTS
Should be a little easier to insure although in saying that, track day insurance at 17? Its going to be fu*cking horrendous from the start...

only got it a couple of months ago, so far its been on croft. Should be going on croft again a week on thursday. Then donny or silverstone in augest
I own a few TU engined cars aswell as the 2.
Id say for track days id get a saxo, they are alot easyer to work on and upgrade parts for, easyer to get parts for as theres so many that have been bent, and different models parts generally tend to fit easily.
Chassis wise they are great out of the box imo, but can be upgraded easily, depending on budget id get a mk1 (even though mk2 looks better) can get a vtr (8v) if you are worried about money, put decent brakes on it and suspension and it will be quick on track, proven when i hammered a few big spec saxos and a 172 on a track day lol.
Vts is the engine to have but insurance???
Gtis tend to hold value more as pug owners think they are worth more than citroens for some reason, even though its the same car bar the leathers in the late spec gti.
any questions drop me a pm, or get on www.sax-p.co.uk I moderate the forum there and theres plenty of people willing to help out if you have questions about them.
