hay everyone basicaly a guy at wor is getting fed up of his car and is thinking of getting a new one now there are some kriteria its got to fill and a previous car list that will give you an idea of the sort of cars hes after.
car list: nova let, space framed anglia with big block v8, zeffer with sc v8, 610bhp skyline gtr33, 620bhp vxr8.
criteria are its got to be peterol, its got to have a roof, its got to be immaculate, and its got to be farely rare as in hardly any on the road..
currently hes seen a old school 911 turbo but cant think of anything else.

he's not to fussed about repairing something lol.
I dont think he would have a jag as he works for them now.
Shall mention these to him as yesterday he was going on that ne wanted to get anotner car if the reliability issues aren't sorted, if they can he wants to get one of his old work mates to build him a 960bhp engine for the vxr8
Will see what he says about the cars mentioned.

if thats what he spunks 40k outright on he is a muppet
If I had 40k to buy a car I'd take a wee bit extra on finance and get a GT2. Hopefully we'll have a 996TT next year, aprox 32k. Fingers crossed.

Will do mate going to try and get some pics of it as it is atm, he just got a sign wrighter/mate to put mat black vinal on it in a couple of lines and it does look ace. Problem he's having is that where the cars got 620bhp now he's running a 1000bhp clutch as standard couldn't cope, and it keeps popping clutch slave cylinders, he's tzking it to have a new one fitted today.
