View Full Version : Cheap fun.
Now the clio is gone i want something to have a laugh in, a diesel Rover isnt it :lol:
Only have about £500ish to spend though.
On the lookout for something like:
AX GT
205XS
E30 BMW of somesort
nothing about at the minute though :roll:
e30 deffo mate.....been driving my dad's 328i beemer and it's entertaining stuff...still too refined though lol
Yeah, they do look a good laugh. Cant find any beefy ones.
All weedy 1.6, or 1.8s
Damn Winson for selling his, right engine, right price tag :lol:
E30 ...nowt less than a 2.0L ....The law is 325i or better :wink:
And as if by magic he appears :lol:
Drove my mates 318, that was piss poor
The 318iS has a 16-valve four-pot instead of an eight-valve in the standard 318i, and has 138bhp. Nothing crazy still, but it's entertaining enough and faster than the six-cylinder 320i. And they were offered with limited-slip diffs as an option, as well as M-tech suspension and a few styling goodies as standard...
Failing that, it's gotta be a 205 XS. Huge fun :D

With an alloy throttle body, de-catted exhaust and a decent airfilter a metro gti should outpace all of those you listed.
Matt
Metro turbos are nice too :D will break more then the clio and suffer worse from rust but still fun :P

You wont get a Metro turbo for £500 unless you're really lucky.

if you want fun get an old school mini 8)
buy 1 with the right mods and it will out accelerate out corner just about anything for the same price
Leaning towards the BMW idea at the minute tbh folks, although for £500 you cant seem to get much for your money. Not much point in looking for speed because nothing will fill the boots of the hybrid for the same money never mind £500.
Was going to be doing a deal with a 205 but the lad backed out :x
Would have been a laugh!
Mate is currently driving a 535i he got for £500
ax gt's are a right giggle - so shit it makes it fantastic
Uno Turbo!!!! :lol:
dont getta rover200,
gearboxes go all the time..
