What Car Now?

[Jimlad]

Ok, between us we have the Supra and a new shape VW Beetle.

Obviously the baby sear doesn't fit in the Supra, and I was quite suprised to see it's a tight squeeze in the Beetle.

The woman is thinking of possibly getting a 4door golf... but I'm wondering what I should get. I basically don't want to have to drive a golf everywhere I take the baby!! lol

I was thinking of getting rid of the Supra and getting a family car........ How abouts an Evo 5 or 6?? Or a decent late scooby??

When I say a family car I didn't mean an astra!!!! lmao. I still want a mad jap turbo'd car, but with some extra space!!

Any other suggestions?? thanks

How about a 4 door skyline or a stagea [skyline estate ]

both rare but they are around

Or maybe a mitsi Evo pajero.

Like you say Evo6 or scooby sound good to me:thumbsup:

My thoughts - RS200 Altezza.

Evo will be even higher maintenance than the little 'un :D

Swap the pink one for a golf and keep the supra.

Mk4 golfs with the 1.8t engine are 150bhp standard and can be remapped to 200bhp with no other mods!

What would you rather drive? pink beetle or a nice coloured golf?

Will do mate.

Accord Type R ?? That's not a turbo car... is it?? I quite like integras (white ones), but again... no turbo! :(

[chris202]

thats doesnt mean that a turbo cant be added ;)

Nah the tegra's too small really , accord type r really surprised me - supercharged or turbo'd it would be awesome :D

[Jimlad]

you mean one of these??

Wonder if there are off the shelf turbo kits??

[Yaris SR Kid]

My dad had Accord type R for a while, very nice cars, seats are amazing and stuck to corners really well!

Mitsubishi Legnum VR4 - basically an estate with attitude!!! Twin turbo's and 4wd, a guy I know was selling his recently and it was running around 350bhp no problems. No need to compromise just to get some extra space!!!!

[Jamesb4uk]

I agree with Kimi jim.

Nissan Stagea - saw one not to long ago when i picked up the Celica - used to be a pace car with 400+ BHP

Yep - Stagea - powered by a 2.5L V6 single turbo with 4WD.

[Jimlad]

don't want an estate (well the legnum looks pretty cool), just want a decent turbo'd 4 door car. :)

[Tom.B]

:!Removed!: what happened to the rx you had m8?

[Jimlad]

it's still in holland... guy still working on engine.

[raywong]

how about the Mitsubishi Galant then? the saloon version of the Mitsubishi Legnum VR4, same engine, same power, and cheap as chips too.. have a search on autotrader, theres a few thats quite cheap.

My brother-in-law has got a Mazda 6 MPS as a company car which is rather good and fast.

[ricomr2]

I drove those Mazda 6's in my old job and didn't like them at all.

Very cheap feeling and they come with Lexus style lights as standard!

[Jimlad]

No decent suggestions....

Thinking it's gonna be an evo of some sort. Probably an Evo 4, hopefully an Evo 5, or 6. But the prices jump up a little after the 4. Or if I found a decent Galant VR4 with some ooomph, then that'd do too.

I'll be a proper rally slag! :)
