Anyone seen it.... ?

Hi Guys.... its been a while - is everyone well?

 

I was wondering today after spotting a very tidy storm on the M65 if anyone has seen or heard of my old VR6? :?:

 

I would love to know how its getting on...

I haven't am afraid. Did however see your 200 SX in a magazine! Looked absolutely fantastic by the way :thumbleft: Was surprised to see it wasn't a Touring though :?:

Thanks Andy - I'm not a fan of leather interiors hence why I went for a non touring spec'd car - its rarer for starters ;)

 

My car is luckily enough to have a few factory options that the touring cars dont get so I'm not too bothered :)

Prefer leather, but on hot days it's horrible! What other options have you got then? Not much difference outside, apart from the side skirts are they?

Standard Spec V Touring Spec

 

Touring has these extras:

 

Passenger Airbag

Leather

CD Multichanger

Sideskirts

 

Thats it ;)

 

My standard spec car has:

 

CD Multichanger

Factory fitted stainless sill plates

Factory fitted plastic headlamp covers (essential as headlamps are £500 a pop)

 

So I lose the leather (that I dont like) and the side skirts (that I dont want as they cause bad rust as they trap dirt / water in) and the passenger airbag that I do need ;)

 

Car is being rolling roaded next month - expecting in the region of 290bhp / 280lbft torque ... :)

Be interested to see your results.

 

Think the SX is the best value sports car around- you get so much kit and performance, the S14A looks great, and there aren't that many about, rear wheel drive etc etc.

Its a great car - no doubting that.. but every time I see a sweet VR6 on the road I think 'maybe its time for another' ;)

Scuse me.. can I but in and ask what sort of MPG do you get out of the 200SX?

 

I'm mostly interested in motorway mileage on a standard spec car.

 

I'm looking for a replacement for my VR6 and the 200SX is ticking a few boxes for me.

 

I used to have a Sunny GTiR but I got rid of it as it did 18-22mpg everywhere.

The 200 is defo better on fuel than my old VR6 when I'm running it at standard boost - I get around 30mpg up to about 38mpg on the motorway.... stick it on high boost though and I get 20 - 22mpg :)
