DHA Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 So here are the candidates for my next car, they are in no particular order: Civic TypeR Always liked them and its as cheap as chips, i think it would be quite a fun car. Golf R32 Only one problem here, its german and the three herman's that i have owned havent been that great and nor have the dealers. Scooby, new STi UK or a P1 Not 100% sure about the whole scooby thing and mrs. dha hates them EVO I love the 6 and they are going for good money now, but the 4.5K service intervals would kill me TT Hmmmmmmm Used S3 Hmmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brabus Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 I'll think you'll have problems in going from an M3 to a Honda Civic. Or any lesser car. Have you thought about an RS4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHA Posted May 3, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 nah im going for something that takes up less of my money, i cant be bothered spending so much on something that i am not totally happy with. Id rather something cheaper if it was more fun to drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 then go Scooby STI i know my GF is also nagging about how ugly it is....but they don't give a tosser anyway..it's just transportation for them and if you all count it up...there's nothing that can beat a scooby in price/pleasure/low costs/reliability ok it looks like [censored]....but it's cheap and fun and reliable...just what you where looking for.... go STI+PPP or WRX with PPP (no STI without PPP, then you're better of with WRX+PPP for less money) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHA Posted May 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 tested an sti and sti ppp today. to be honest i dont think that the ppp is worth £2000, the difference in performance is not that great on the road and all it seemed to do was smooth out the turbo lag but made the front more prone to torque steer. Was very solid on the road but the price they offered for the M3 has put me off. Linz how sexy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
