M777CUSGTI 0 Posted November 27, 2004 Your all going to have to use your imaginations for this little story scenario guys :lol: Ok so you wake up in the morning and you find your Corrado has gone :shock: but in its place is a nice lump some of £5k, you obviously need to buy a replacement car, What would you buy??? mine would be a Fiat coupe 20VT. oh yeh, stipulation is you cannot go out and buy another C :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted November 27, 2004 Hey, M777CUSGTI, I understand totally your meaning :wink:, I'll be sending the lads round to "liberate" your C in the morning. I'm sure your insurance company will furnish the £5k lump sum before too long. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samm_cvr6 0 Posted November 27, 2004 I don't think 5k will get you a decent mk4 TDI. So would maybe settle for a 2000 spec Coupe 20V Turbo, if indeed that can be had for 5k, haven't checked prices... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can get plenty of MK4 TDI's mate around £5000-£6000 - take a look on Autotrader. I'm not necessarily talking low mileage pristine dealer example - more like reasonably high mileage ex rep car but they are strong engines and will probably break less than a Rado ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablo_vr6 0 Posted November 27, 2004 a lancer evo2 - if i could insure the bugger :( 2k of that would be on mods tho :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samm_cvr6 0 Posted November 27, 2004 don't think you will get a 130 or 150 PD tho! :cry: However, I came very close to buying a Nissan 200 Touring before i got the C, it had 270bhp from just a few mods, it was a flying machine! But it ain't all about speed! 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ice White Socks 0 Posted November 27, 2004 An interesting choice for me- bearing in mind 5k is not a massive amount of cash, I could be tempted by a cheap Ibiza cupra R (the older shape ones- x reg ish)- Obviously a very difficult animal to the VR6 but I have a sneaky feeling it would be a hell of a lot of fun :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tempest 0 Posted November 27, 2004 Audi quattro Coupe as well for me, the old boxy one that is, would sit nicely alongside my Mk1 Rocco :D You can get plenty of MK4 TDI's mate around £5000-£6000 - take a look on Autotrader. I'm getting worried now, up to now I just thought, all this talk of getting a Mk4 Golf was just palaver, but if searches on Autotrader have even taken place ... worried about the Rado :lol: Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rado-steve 0 Posted November 27, 2004 Either a Celica GT4 and spend the extra 3K making it 400Bhp+ or a Porka 944 Turbo! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

docatkins 0 Posted November 28, 2004 A mint E30 M3 would more likely cost you £15 K, and if you find a dolphin grey one, then it's been resprayed as they weren't produced in that colour. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
