Hey mate, great news on the court case! Glad all went well for you, what a result! Sorry i didnt text you back, ive changed number, will PM you my new number..

As for what to get and how to do it, my opinion is just keep it realistic, I found that running the MR2 turbo and a second run a round was ok but i hated being seen in the run a round and ended up using the MR2 more than i planned to! Thats why i went for the teggy, mainly to avoid high running costs of a turbo car and have the benefits of low fuel consumption if and when i want it but have a track orientated car for those times when i want it! Im happy i personnally spent out on the car in the first place and now have a cheapish to run N/A Honda (touch wood - no pun)

Out of the cars you mentioned i'd have the 32 GTS but be aware of the cost in running it and the fact that my teg will still be all over it on the track!! :P :grin:

got your new number sorted :thumb:

as for the car choices......

you are lucky you dont have 4 children mate. my needs are different otherwise there would be about another 6 cars on the list!! lol

as for keeping up with me in anything other than the slag, you been sniffing your exhaust pipe? :-D

don't go around covering up your fear of powerful rwd cars by blaming running cost :wink: :-D

i have a few options and i will make bloody sure its got more power than yours ( not difficuil really! )

cant wait to meet up again at the virgin meet mate.

i'll try and talk to you more this time :oops:

must be a tough decision jim, glad to hear your case is all in the past ,
pulsars are dirt cheap at the moment and can get one with reasonable mods for silly money , ok they take a bit of maintaining and are a bitch to work on , but they put a smile on your face.
decisions decisions
old evo 3's are pretty cheap aswell , i thought about getting one to replace my last pulsar as i only want a car for track etc..

how about a gt4 celica ?
