So what is everyone got there sights set on next>?

Will it be faster than your current car, or will you go for planet saver that is the DIEsel?

Mines is hopefully going to be a Civic Type R ek9.

One of the fastest Naturally asspirated cars ever, 1600cc @ 185 bhp.

Anyone else?!?
 
Either an Evo 8 FQ 340 or an Escort Cosworth.

One to scare people with or one to lock up and polish... Not sure what i want to do yet.
 
all being well i want a mk5 fiesta zetec-s and should have one soon but things arent running smoothly in the plan lol :(.

currently driving a 1.2 dynamique so it will be a we bit quicker at least :)
 
Prolly an R27 or R26, mainly because I've been out in both and love them. R27 was more fun, but obviously not as fast, but will prolly go for that and ITB it.

Oh, Nissan do a Pulsar VZR N1 1.6 16v with 200bhp (NA too) and think it revs to 9500rpm or something insane!

Well if its the Cossie then its a second car im guessing!

When you say scare people, do you mean scare yourself? lol
 
looking at either a new c4 1.6 derv or a new 1.5 meg derv. i just want more space but the same fue economy lol. i'm leaning more towards the c4 as megs are abit too common.
but what ever i get i'm gonna keep for atleast 4 years.

LOL! no, i mean scare passengers! I once did a track day in My 172 and took a mate who's not into cars at all. After 6 laps we had to come in so he could be sick!!

Either will be a 4th car, so will only get used for pleasure.
 
The only drawback to them is the intercooler mounted on top of the engine makes the car slugish in wam weather, could never understand why nissan done that!
 
Lol, Tough one...

Say around 10k... One of 3:
Lotus Elise/Exige
Golf R32
Evo 8

Great Fun, Quick and Handle... Everything a car should be, for as little as possible cost!!

Give it a couple of years... Porsche GT3 Clubman!!
 
Evo 8? Little cost>!>?

They need serviced every 4k or somthing silly like that! Id go for the Exige out of that list!

Or a Focus RS!
 
i'm gonna wait and see if this "Ultimate" Megane R26 ever emerges. Hopefully it'll gain cult status like the Clio Trophy.


if it don't, a remapped BMW 3 series diesel probably!
 
Honda NSX, without power steering. One of the finest handling, best sounding cars ever made.
 
Looking @ a R26, been considering one for a while but then again i'd like to get away from a Reno just for a change!

Also considering a Golf ED30 or dare i say a Corsa VXR! quite like 'em.
 
Depends on my financial/family situation, could be a few years yet tho. Loving the looks of the Alfa Mi.To and hoping for a hot version, always fancied the Z4 (call me quentin, I'll do you a lovely perm..) too.. Otherwise likely to be a family bus, but hope that will be a good few years yet!
 
Thinking Clio V6, or Honda S2000 as next car - unless I can get enough money together for a Z4M Coupe - preferably in white.
 
white fiesta st (no stripes) as a 197 will cost to much to run/insure, and the fiesta will do me nicely.

Just sold the 172 about a week ago and now got a Civic Type-R EP3. Lovin it!

good to hear! they are ridiculously quick; i remember when i first sat in one... knew it ws gonna be quick, but didn't realise that quick!!


what about the latest JDM Civic Type R?

I'd have one were it not for the extornionate insurance costs on japanese imports!
 
Depends if I want another unpractical car then an Exige, if I want a more practical one then an R26
 
Something cheap to run but newer... dont know really.. quite like the new fiat 500 and that is about as cheap as they come to run.

I was going to treat myself to a Vee for my 30th birthday, as I've been working hard, but I dont think the missus will agree with me getting that.

In my opinion it's either got to be quick and fun (worth the money to run) or the opposite and very cheap (worth putting up with because it cost f-all to run). I cant hack floundering in 'halfway' cars imho there neither fun or cheap.

If you can afford to run two cars (you lucky soul) think about getting the exige, they are like a road legal go kart with a rocket up the exhaust. Trouble is every lotus I've been in has given me a bad back lol, so I couldn't ever have one as an every day car :(
