    I reckong they're a bit middle aged - which if you've just passed seems unlikely.

    Honda S2000. Then again insurance could be a bit pricey without NCB.

    Turbodiesels are great to drive: used to have a peugeot 306 and loved it.

        Yes, one of my toys is a race/rally modified Mazda 626. Great fun, looks like sh1t, rattles like a bag of bolts, blows everything away at the red light drag strip.

        When I finally total it, which I almost certainly will this winter, I am most definitely going to buy another Mazda 6 and uplift in a similar way.

            A mate of mine just got a Mazda 6. Sat in it last weekend. Excellent car in my opinion. Didn't drive it, but felt nice and taut. can't really go wrong with that choice. Only slight negative is the Mazda brand but that's all crap anyway.

            But for £12K I would get the Skoda Fabia vRS.

              A ford Ka is great, I can almost park it at a right angle from the pavement. A friend of mine with a Smart can do it.
              Chico, what time is it?

                Why is the Mazda brand negative?

                The won the best coupe in what car 2 years running and the MX-5 is one of the best budget roadsters.

                Of course he could buy a BMW 3 series, of which more were sold last year in Europe than Ford Mondeos, so hardly exclusive!

                The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                    Honda civic Type R 14k, 200bhp, holds it value.
