Always had a soft spot for the Ricer Rally Reps, as I had a Mitsubishi Evo back in the day...

Needs some bodywork repair but only 2,000 miles from new.

Or for the more discerning who want a rag top

55,000 miles!
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

E89 20i Now fully dried

Can't. I get bored very easily. The Scooby for £20k would be a good deal. Couldn't afford to run the Diva Aston.

I think you'll find I haven't bought a car since May. Prices are dropping, can't afford to keep changing anymore. I do like that scooby, though. House is going on the market this week, so anything will have to wait until we see what happens with that. I have moved house on average every three years too; so it's not just cars! :oops:

I had a 5 with a few very light mods. It was a grey import, as they didn't start selling 'officially' in the UK until the 6. I loved that car. The 4G63 engine was one of the best turbo 2 litres ever made IMHO.

The four wheel drive systems on these type of cars are incredible. Electronically controlled centre diffs, the lot. As I said earlier I had an equivalent Evo 20 years ago. It was the only car I've driven that made me feel I could drive well.
