Basically need something to replace my nova now that its just about all gone!
Thinking about spending 8k, could maybe stretch to 10k.
Saph cossie was my original idea, and the reason for breaking my nova. But im wanting something il be able to run everyday, wouldnt want to do that with a saph.
Really thinking about going jap. Impreza type R is looking good, maybe a evo 7. Theres a very nice yellow evo 7 on a local forum just now that is very tempting!

You'll get a nice 8 for £10k but the 7 is basically the same, just different bumpers and rear lights lol.
Be prepared to visit your local petrol garage alot if you drive it hard a lot.

Have a look on Kirkcaldy cruise and see what you think of the yellow evo 7 on there.
To be honest i dont even drive a lot these days let alone hard! Work in Edinburgh so i get the bus there and back everyday, so dont have to worry about commuting costs. Just general running about.
