Rear engined, RWD, 2 seater, turbo, my new car....

[AlexS]

Not quite what you were expecting then! I picked up this last weekend for a very good price as i sold the Zetec S.
Its a 2002 'Pulse' model, tip tronic on 50k, its also got a smartarse stage 2 remap which makes it go abit better, im quite impressed with it.
The running costs are also peanuts.

To be fair Alex it isn't bad.
But nowhere near as good as my new car:

Cool You and Dan can have a mini meet

 

[.GAZ.]

ffs lol

 

[cat171]

Dan (peperami) took me out for a spin in his last week, nutty little things those I wasn't expecting the seating position to be so high in one, lots of view though.

Each time I closed the door I never shut it properly as I didn't wanna break it

Cool cars !

 

[Stig182]

thats fooking s**t, where's my hammer?!?!

 

[Peperami]

Looks sweet mate! Here's mine...

Get a couple of tins of tyre foam and keep them under the seat. Had a complete flat friday, didnt realise theres no way of fixing a puncture.

£86 for a new tyre too, theyre only little!

Avoid windy days on motorways if you value your safety, and your underpants. A gust caused me to change lanes on the M25... :S

How much did you pay, mileage etc? (pm me)

What options did you get?

Have you parked it sideways yet?

Dan

 

[Pettsi]

Awesome!

Wasnt sure about these when they came out, but they look pretty cool!

 

[AlexS]

Cheers for the comments guys.

Touching in the middle ftw

 

[theduck]

Cool looking cars, and yours both look nice examples. Handling, or lack there of, would put me off though.

lol.... i had a similar experience when my sister brought one home from work... driving down our local bypass and like you say a strong gust of wind changed lanes for me.... however they are good little cars.... i'd love a Brabus version!

 

[.Gem.]

Tic Tac the 2nd lol!

 

[Christopher]

I'm sure it's cheap to run!

No, really... you should have ran everywhere. You'd look cooler.

When your sat in stop start traffic in a suit and tie in 25 degree heat for 40minutes I don't care that I look like a c**k munching arse bandit!

 

[2thumbs]

Noddy cars.

 

[cat171]

^ I made a comment like that to Dan, I said to him 'I bet we look like noddy & big ears in this thing'

 

[Hoppy]

dont think i could....
but fair play, cheap to run and are fashionable.

ps id love a brabus coupe

 

[Englebert]

You didn't build it up properly... it also has a 6 speed sequential...

Mine has a remap, air filter and kahn wheels. I am the bane of everyone elses journey when i'm in it.

[McBunny]

granted to look at they are nice BUT they are a PITA and really arnt cheap to service at a dealer and they go wrong ALOT think renault but worse not to mention the leaking that then not only gets you very wet but also kills the sam

 

[MattT]

I got an offer I couldn't refuse, made a nice bit of cash on it

 

[Karl16v]

cool man. I used to have a roadster coupe'. Was soooooo much fun, you gotta get it mapped, and a filter. Leave the top off the air box and hear the turbo chatter!!! Its ace.

Cheers buddy, already got a stage 2 and a K&N on it

 

[White16valver]

Dan, you need to get some serious tints so people cutting you up get a nice surprise when you get out lol

 

[Iridium]

How can anyone on a car enthusiasts site hate driving *that* much ? Only messin mate - bet you're rollin in the savings hehe!

granted to look at they are nice BUT they are a PITA and really arnt cheap to service at a dealer and they go wrong ALOT think renault but worse not to mention the leaking that then not only gets you very wet but also kills the sam

Heh, a guy I know near me had one, it leaked constantly, and had constant faults - which was awesome, because he was an utter wanker

 

[Peperami]

Dan, you need to get some serious tints so people cutting you up get a nice surprise when you get out lol

Lol, have had some funny comments getting in and out of it at the gym, people look shocked!

Lots more space/ legroom inside than you'd think though. More legroom than the clio.

 

[Englebert]

Yes, and folding the passenger seat down gives you loads of carrying capacity. The looks i've had at B&Q have been great!

 

[AlexS]

Suits me just fine at the moment, im using it as abit of a workhorse, I did 120 miles round town yesterday and its ideal, its also nippy enough to keep me entertained and sounds lovely with the K&N.

 

[Ian_182]

Shocking car but good in a crash.if its what you like the fair enough

I think it looks like an old 1970's rollerskate
