    Should I Go Valver Track Spec?????

    hi guys iv been floating around on this board for a couple of years now and stupidly brought a vts over a williams a few years back, i now drive a 400bhp mr2 turbo rev4 which is my weekend drive and have a trusty metro 1.1 for daily comute which im sooooooo bored of now and looking for something relaible with good build quality fairly nippy and something that has the potential to be a a-b rd terrorist oh and fairly cheep to run {dont want alot hey lol} now iv shortlisted the cars into the below

    clio valver
    metro 1.8 vvc
    mini 1295gt {clasic}
    pug 205 gti {1.6 or 1.9}

    all the above would have minamal engine mods and just ALOT of suspension work ie coilovers, anti roll bars, polly bushs the whole shabang and a nice set of small rims i have a budget of around £1300 for the car and oviously a bit more for mods, if it were your money what would you go for?

    id love a valver with
    k&n filter
    full exhaust
    chip
    all suspension work done
    full roll cage
    harnesses
    stripped out
    and some ronal turbo wide wheels on a graphite colour car {u can see what im after from the above}

    Valver will be the best day-to-day proposition, followed by the 205. Personally (and this is just a personal thing!) I wouldn't even consider the other two, for various reasons.

    Valver gets my vote

    thats not bad mate but looking for a valvre for slightly cheeper insurance and the fact i could leave it places without worrie, id be to parra about having a williams as a every day car,

    was basicly looking for a cheep mechanicly sound valver so i could just fine tune the suspension and a set of ronal turbo alloys and be done, wouldnt wanna spoil the williams bud

    full suspension set up
    new wheels and toyo r888 tyres
    straight through exhaust
    filter
    stripped
    carbon seats
    = job done
