Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

I'd imagine finding an RS twingo would be hard though :/

Yeah, theres less than 65 for sale here in the UK. But still, theres only a choice of like 3 cars.

8650€ tho

 

Could be in better shape as well. Rims are ricy, rear RS logo, GTFO, little sticker on the rear windshield, GTFO. Steering wheel isn't in it's best shape either...

There was a really nice Gordini for sale here that I would have been interested in, if it wasnt £7500.

 

And to whoever was looking. FN2 Civic Type R is another one. You now have 4 cars to consider if you can find any.

If there wasn't a 2009+ and N/A requirement this would be soo easy.

Ew fiat uno.

Best hot hatch ever for me would be the Clio 182.

Would suggest that if he didnt say 2009+ and still wanted n/a

Oh well @Strando123

Enjoy your dart^^ I'm still three years away from getting one myself. 

How will it work with registration and stuff since the dart is older than the volvo you had to sell because of insurance or somesuch?

@vinyldash303 this sunday matt is planning on running his truck at AutoX, "just because". He has some all terrains on it right now. 

 

Will be interesting to see how he does against the S10 that is always there (btw me and matt are pretty equal in terms of driving skill, so also a chance to see just how much slower a modern pickup is to a sports car in raw times)

 

@warmmilk On a side note the base "sport" miata from 2002 had 15" x 6" wheels. Im gonna so argue that when I go over there and hope they let me into the stock class. I have the same car with wheels offered on another trim level :P
