What/did you get next?



  Clio 182 FF
What would you/did you buy after a clio sport? I keeping looking on pistonheads and autotrader but not much leaps out at me. I quite like VX220s but something doesn't draw me and things like civic FD2s are too expensive.

Not that I am going to change but I probably will in he future.

Ye'll be Bach!

The obvious progression is Meganes but the world is your oyster.

I want a v8 out of my system next. But as I'm not a baller it'll either be a short lived romp with a v8 or a megane next.

I'm in no rush to change the clio though
 
I got this next (seriously!)
Massive change in circumstances and about 12 months between a 182 and this though!

After selling my second 172 I bought an Audi S4 the 2.7 bi-turbo. It was an absolute monster off the line and in a straight line! However it bored me to tears in the bends etc, so I came back. 3rd time lucky!

non ricer-spec MX5.
-identical running costs
-better/more involved handling (you think twice between planting your foot half-way around an off-camber, downhill bend in the damp)
-nice to have no roof

Once my 200 goes this month I won't be replacing it for the foreseeable future.

No need.

I replaced my 182 with a 330. I love the Beemer but I know I will buy a 182 again one day. More than likely as a toy.
 
Replaced my flamer 172 with a bmw e36 328 which has been pretty heavily modified by a mate of mine!
I love it, wouldn't change back for the world!

The beemer is faster, clio is probably quicker in twisties but tbh I love my RWD now so getting the back end to step out a little I find more fun these days :)

Astra VXR, don't miss the Clio as much as i thought i would tbh!

Yes the Clio is better on the twisty stuff and is just as quick in real life but i don't miss the smallness and rattles and the general 'old' car feel. Still, such a cracking car though! They have that character about them.

I also replaced my 172 cup with an E36 328i sport.
Got fed up of how boring it was and got an MX-5, then got my current clio :)

They always return.

I actually originally got a 328 sport convertible and it was boring.... Then bought this current one off my mate and its superb! It's had a lot of work done though, over £2k spent on engine alone so its a bit of a beast :)

Not sure what car id like next - something turbo but wouldn't want to leave RWD

  172 Cup
Mine goes new 182 in 2004 -> Z3M in 2008 -> briefly E60 M5 in 2014 -> High boost 172 cup current
 
  WR1 impreza
Impreza WR1. Wouldn't hesitate in returning to Renaultsport ownership in the future but only alongside the impreza. Bloody love the thing lol

A E46 DIEsel estate and an Abarth 500. Looking for An E46 M3 and a Morris minor (or beetle convertible) next.

The Abarth wasn't as quick as the 172 but a tuning box helped.

I went Clio 182 - Punto GT3 - R5 GT Turbo - Impreza STI - Clio 182 :)

Next? Probably either a Civic Type-R or Fiesta ST.
