Corsa C 1.3CDTI; I share cars with the gf and I use this to commute as I get 60mpg

206 GTi
Will get replaced next year by a Vectra C 150bhp diesel Elite
The car will then be stripped and prepped for rallying as the shell is perfect.
Probably swap the 2L engine for a 1.6 and tune that up.
(I don't want to be in a 2L class with a 206!)
Robin Hood 2B:
Will be getting new, lightweight seats, engine rebuild for the c20xe as it needs new piston rings.
Depending on funds and housing situation, it may be traded in for the starter kit Ultima GTR.
The cathram style car honestly freaks me out. Id hate to have a crash with it as your heads would be the first to scarp the floor

2000 Ibiza Cupra 20VT
Sell it.
Still hoping to use it in a PX for a car my Dad has his eye on. The deal would be using my car as his PX, then me having his 52 Astra Convertible Linea Rossa. Then pay him the difference between the value of mine as a PX and the value of his. Which wouldn't be too much.

At the moment its got full JP exhaust system, Courtney Sport panel filter, Eibach Sportline springs, a RARB, and EDS Stage 2 Remap.
Future plans - full correction detail to remove swirls that the accident repair bodyshop left me and a real carbon rear diffuser.

Both cars are stunning. The Evo looks so aggro

S3
No plans really, wouldn't mind an S3 plate and a remap but that it.
Might buy a machine polisher to get rid of swirls etc but its not a priority.
GTi
Not sure what im doing with this now, fancy something I can play with so probably lower it, do a few mods to get the power up and do some track days.

Current car: Accord Type R 2.2...
Had it a month or so now, already lowered it 30mm and done some service bits and bobs. Plans are to have front bumper painted due to a poor coverup of stone chips and I'm going to have the roof done at the same time due to some paint that has bubbled for some funky reason. Will maybe do calipers bright green and have green R's made to replace the red ones but jusry is still out on that.

Decide if i'm going to keep it or not
If i keep, probably a whole load of engine toys
If i get rid and can get a decent insurance quote maybe an RS or Evo. If i'm sensible however maybe a BM 320d

Mine -
Plans :- Remap, which is booked for the 28th other than that none really as keeping it in top notch condition doesn't really count as plans as it will be taking a back seat as we get the keys to our house next friday.
If the times come i do sell up think it will be very hard to find something good enough to replace it with.
