Should I go for a V6?

[Iridium]

I think the Vee would be the most rewarding car to master - because it would the hardest. Just IMHO - I thijnk the VXT is easier to drive quickly, because they're so brilliantly setup as standard. If you mastered a Vee on the limit and a track and really got the best out of it I imagine it would make you a damn good driver heh. Like Clarkson always says, an Evo or Scoob flatters you - anyone can drive them at 10/10ths and not stack it.

In summary, just get a Sagaris and AA membership

yeah i agree with you there, although having never driven a V6 i am not in much position to comment.

trust me - if i could afford a sagaris, i would have had it by now!

 

[Alan]

E46 M3 is what you want son...

 

[rs250nut]

Depends what you class as special I suppose.

You sir are very special!!! In so many ways!

name me a modern i.e post 99' Car for under 20k which is as special as the vee and will turn heads like the vee and have people coming up to you in the street askin about it...

I dare ya!

Radical and it will piss all over a v6 clio.

agreed!!!! talk bout off the mark!!!

 

[Jamie _Swales]

Yes

I have never looked back after leaving my VX220 for the V6. although it is slower, its so much of a better car. I began to hate my vx due to how impractical and awkward it was. I love the V6 and the sounds is so amazing


Do it

 

[Ali]

^Good to hear! Get an IK for more noise! It's unreal!

 

[rs250nut]

Its got two seats just like your V6 and can be driven on the road like your V6, although a little impractial but it will still do what you ask for a car under 20k. You sort of left yourself wide open for that one but i can see where you are coming from.

Getting a radical SVA'd is near impossible, due to a number of issues.

Firstly the emission of SR4's pre 2002 are too high so you need different inlets, coils, etc no sure exactly.

And secondly unless it's a road car to start with, I.e made to order from the factory the tub will come without a centre handbrake, And therefore won't pass an SVA.

just thought i'd point that out seein as we're talkin about radicals! lol

I would prefer this to a V6,and its quicker than an evo

Who wouldn't! But it's not justifiable...The runnin costs are crippling. I know a boy with one and he does about 3k miles a yr max!

 

[Ian_182]

Theres a guy on here with one i think,but yes the running costs are high,but no higher than an evo

A mate of mine has just sold his V6 and bought a Lotus Exige

OMG!!!!!
