Took out a 2005 WRX STI with the Prodrive pack fitted that I'm considering buying today. Over 300 BHP and yes it was very quick and stuck to the road really well. Just need to decide if I can handle spending most of my life in a BP petrol station filling it up.

Have driven a 225 a while ago and felt it was pretty good. I don't think I'll get a mustang on PCP and I think driving a LHD car everyday would be a pain in the back end.

Is it really that boring... :cry: I was hoping that would be a fun car. I want something as quick and fun as possible. Going to take a testdrive in a Impreza WRX STI at the weekend, I'm hoping that will feel rapid.. :)

Decided I've had enough of banging around in my diesel to work everyday, so I'm going to chop it in for a sporty car and sod the fuel costs... :wack: Can anyone recommend any good sporty cars. Must be under 2 years old(company policy) and under 18k. Was thinking about a Focus ST or maybe an Impreza WRX, RX8, Megane 225. Oh I just need some help deciding on a short list to go and test drive... :)

Depends what you want to do with it I suppose. Have you tried looking in the dell outlet store, they have some great bargains in there sometimes.

OK Paul. I look forward to some pics.

Can anyone reccomend a full system for a SWB car. I want it pretty quiet to be honest. The current zorst is a straight through system with no boxes and it's doing my freekin head in. There seems to be no choice when it comes to SWB exhausts, ZCentre have one, but does anyone know of any other suppliers of different systems.

I'm not replacing the spoiler I just love the look of it smoothed, then I just need a 99 spec front bumper and I'll be happy, just love the look of the Zed pretty much standard really.

Thanks james, I'll try and give the guy a ring today, I'll let you know when you can have the spoiler. Si the holes are just on the sides of the tailgate, the top of the spoiler has already been done and still looks good. I'll have to see what the various bodyshops suggest as to filling the holes. Would love to just get the whole car painted now, but if I spend 2.5k on a respray before the wedding I'll be a dead man.. :smash:

yes I did wonder what the usual method of refilling the holes would be. Wouldn't a good bodyshop be a able to weld up the holes and then grind it back? I don't want to spend a fortune on this as I want to get the whole car re-painted after my wedding in April next year.

Yep he was going to be my first port of call as you'd recommended him, not too bothered about waiting a bit, spoiler is still sat in my garage. I might scew it back on until I get the boot sorted but then it's all yours..

cheers, that's not bad, I'll have to take it to a few places and see if I can get a quote around that price...

No Probs mate, your only round the corner so just let me know if you want to come over

I've got a datascan. if you need it your welcome to pop over one evening.

Having whipped the rear mid spoiler off it's a bit of a mess under there. :cry: It was attached with self tappers through the tailgate. Can anyone give me an idea of what I should expect to pay to get the holes filled in and it repainted before I get some quotes. Its the same on both sides. Will they weld up the screw holes?

picked up from the post office today, excellent quality a job well done. Also just sent payment via paypal

What sort of engineering are you doing? Maybe a change of tack in the same profession could help. Manufacturing in this country aint quite as bad as people make out. I'm a process control engineer and have so much work its unreal. Lots of companysare still interested in the UK and setup buisiness here but granted they are more food/pharm/power companys.

I've got a tomtom 710 and flippin love it, travel a lot with work and don't know how the heck I survived without it..

It is yes. Now I've decided to keep it. Its getting a manual conversion, leather retrim, 99 Spec front and a complete respray. Then I'll be skint :rofl: :rofl:

I want to get my car on the rollers to check fueling is OK and its not detting ect. Was going to take it to Thor but Northampton Motorsport is 5 minutes from my house. Has anyone taken there zed to them?

Planning on doing an Auto - Manual conversion on my SWB TT, Is the front half of the manual propshaft the same for a LWB or SWB. Or do I need to hunt down a SWB Manual prop :confused:

I did my bathroom with that stuff, as a non-plummer in fact a non-diy person. I thought it was fan-bloody-tastic

Oh go on then, I'll let someone else have some... :rant: :rant: Could you imagine winning that amount of cash... I reckon I'd have a heart attack before I ever saw any of it... :rofl: :rofl:

Affraid I'll be the one winning..... And I'm not sharing. I want the whole 100 Million :rofl: :rofl:
