VX220 - super cheap to run for what it is
Astra GSi
S2000
Integra typre R
Focus ST170 (you did say economy)
E36 M3 (bit chav now)
E46 320d
E46 330 Ci (sound soooo good and decent mpg (ish)
CTR
Golf mk4 Anni

But if it was my money it'd be between the VX220 and saving up an extra 2K and searching high and low for a Focus RS

Also s2000, we paid £10,900 for ours and that was a 2000 with only 36K on so im sure you can get a 60K on a 199 for that money

colin, he would take an offer of around 10k on this

[quote="Bosch-Man"]P reg...38000miles...Genuine Cosworth on the logbook...Beleived to be built by A1 Rally...using a 909 Ford Motorsport shell (no sunroof)..Chassis number by DVLA which means you dont need a CAT for the MOT due to the number coming off a 1990 car...all above board.Was a white full road car when i bought it..all carpet and interior is here minus the front and back seats if you wanted it back standard...still retains the leather door cards etc.

Spec:-
Engine
3000mile since rebuild EEC4 head and block (best there is!)
T35 turbo
P8 ECU
Hi pressure oil pump
Greys (only just put them in!)
Paul Hills chip running anti lag
Proper breather system
All aeroquipped except the fuel rail
Mongoose exhaust newish

This engine was running greens before and was run at 21psi and still is!

Transmission is std and has no whines and is in very good order.

Body is full Martini and is the tits..RS500 front fog grills (not shown in pics)
..Morettes...OZ super tourismos 18in...Reyland AP fully floating 356 mm front disks with AP 6 pot callipers....std rear brakes...Ohlins remote damper coilover suspension off a famous recce car (cost 10k new! :cry: ) needs setting up though although is fine for the road imo!Fully polybushed front.

Inside is a safety devices cage with door bars and diagonal needs plates on the front and rear cage mounts i didnt bother as i wasnt tracking it and was more for look..LOL....FIA approved sparco buckets..proper willans 6 point aircraft style harneses..secs moniter..capilary oil pressure gauge...boost gauge in side column.

Needs a couple of minor bits to make perfect...fueling needs checking if upping the boost from 21psi as i dont know what fuel pump is in there..i was told is a Grp A but i never checked..safe at 21psi no worrys.Runs and drives mint..stops on a nine pence :cry: Goes like a rocket off the lights and with anti lag on fooking ace around the lanes..EVERYONE stops and looks at this car..kids take photos..LOL....Fast Ford have offered to mag feature it...i wont do that though not my scene :cry: Gas a couple of bits need doin as said...nothing major.

I am considering selling it as i have too many toys and just dont use it...i may take a good 3dr in px to sit and look at..lol..Have no idea what to ask for this car as its unique IMO...PM me some offers or call me on number in sig...as i say i may PEX a decent 3dr...no insulting offers please.
