Thought you said not chav style! :D -you need a sunny turbo,if you can find one! ;)

lol! ax gt?! i suppose!

if its original its not THAT chav!

Suzuki Swift GTI

 

Reliable, 1.3 and 100bhp:D

Swift GTi's are great, rare though.

 

Clio 16v's was a great car, used to have one about 8 years ago. Overshadowed by the Williams, which left it comparably unknown (and its name did'nt help). Fast (136bhp) and handled well.

 

Had an AX GT too for a short time, you dont really want one. Fun, but flimsey as hell would'nt want to have a smash in it and crap handling unless you lower it and fit bigger wheels...and it is "chavvy".

 

A Mini ?

Daihatsu Charade GTTI, 1.0l 3cyl turbo, 100BHP, Toyota Starlet GT Turbo/Glanza, 1.3l Turbo, 115BHP/133BHP depending on if you put it on low/high.

mazda 323 4wd turbo 1600cc 16v

VW Polo G60. It has a supercharged engine. But an old car now.

Honda Civic, Mazda 323, Nissan 100NX, PUG 306, Toyota Corolla

323f GT (1990-1994)

 

FWD, 1.8 140bhp, my old one ran a 15.7 quarter mile with just an exhaust and air filter to increase performance.

 

Only problem is they are getting old and are group 13 insurance.

I had a k reg sunny GTi, really nice car to drive 20L 16v, handling was great. and did go too

who said 100 nx :slap: :nono:

i would say swift gti aswell

205 gti all the way or a 1.3 mini (but that wouldn't be under a grand!)

How about the Toyota Corolla Gti............nippy and handle really good

 

Also very easy to run and theyre not to bad on fuel either

Astra GSis are still nice looking cars if you can find a standard non-rusty one. The C20XE is an excellent motorsport proved engine and is the best in its class.

 

It's also very easy to drop a C20LET and 6 speed box in it from a Calibra and you've then got a very very fast little car.

 

Mazda MX3 1.8 V6

 

Quite cheap to insure as well
