2 year itch

[Steve-o]

Depends, likely to be more than 15k. Any ideas what mine is worth, mods included?

 

[Alex_225]

I don't know enough about the GTs to comment on how much it's worth I'm afraid.

In terms of mileage, they say that over 15k a year and a diesel is well worth it.

I'd considered a diesel Clio as a daily run about a couple of years back. Looked into it and as I was only doing 4-5k a year the extra cost of the diesel fuel wouldn't have benefited me.

 

[Steve-o]

That's why I'm looking at a used bmw 330d. Chip tuned so I get the best of both worlds, economy and speed.

 

[Alex_225]

Yeah the 330D can be a real beast of a car, especially re-mapped.

I'm not a huge BMW fan although a mate of mine had a 2002 M3 and it was awesome.

 

[Steve-o]

My dads had an M3, M5 and drives a 760 at the moment. I think he likes them

 

[Alex_225]

Haha I'm guessing he does, sounds like it's rubbing off on you as well.

The M3 is a very impressive motor. Must say though, the current M6 would certainly be a car I'd choose to have in my dream garage.

 

[maggi200]

OOo I'm helping detail an m6 soon

and got my sisters boyfriends new m3 to do too, awesome cars. An e46 is still awesome but i thought the engines weer a little fragile and expensive to repair?

been thinking of 2nd car, killing 20k miles a year on the RS, already had 3rd service and had it since jan 09. oh dear. looking into sokda diesal sport or vag tdi engine

You know what, after the B road blast I had this morning, the Twingo is definately staying. Its amazing how 6 miles of empty flowing road can make you want to keep it! I have noticed some suspension weaknesses though, coilover time.

[Steve-o]

Yep - thats why im going my favorite way to uni

 

[Alex_225]

You'll find it hard to beat the Twingo for fun.

Just buy some diesel workhorse for the boring driving haha.

Thats the plan

Buy a Honda Jazz....then put a K22 in it and take it to TDI and get them to put their Supercharger kit on it from the FN2 =D

*and keep it very quiet....and standard looking apart from a sticker on the rear bumper saying "Yep...you got pwned by a Jazz"* :lol:

[maggi200]

That sounds like a receipe for fun! I quite like the jazz with the k20 going round with the **** badge on the back. Having been in a crx with a turbo'd b16 i can say first hand vtec and boost is mental fast

 

[madmatt]

I've only really experienced N/A VTec in my mates EP3, but I liiiike =D
The Black Jazz with the K20 that was in Banzai is based up this end of the country, saw it at the Falkirk Cruise before it had its feature.
