Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 14:28:02 I'm doing the unthinkable soon and trading in my beloved Civic Type R :o
I need advice on what to get next. It has to be as fast if not faster than the Type R, newish (no older than a year) and look good. I've considered the following... VW Golf GTi VW Golf R32 Focus ST Audi S3 (The new one but this is pushing the budget abit) Honda S2000 BMW 3 Series Coupe I won't even consider anything French so no Peugeots, Renaults or Shitroens. What shall i get guys. Title: Help Deciding Post by: Sussex on Monday, May 28, 2007, 14:35:59 Personally I'd go for an L reg Mondeo estate (preferably red), but if that's a bit out of your price range then a VW Golf R32. Lush.
Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 14:37:30 I do like the R32. :twisted:
I will get between £11k and £12k for mine. Title: Help Deciding Post by: Chubbs on Monday, May 28, 2007, 14:39:36 go for the r32, i dare ya.

I was just about to suggest a lambo Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 21:19:24 I would love a Lambo.
Only thing that puts me off them is their an Oxford car. Their badge has a raging bull on it and most Lambo's are yellow. No, give me a red swindon Ferrari anyday with a prancing Willie Carson horse on the badge. Title: Help Deciding Post by: Sade on Monday, May 28, 2007, 22:21:20 ST definately !!!!!!! I love that car.
Title: Help Deciding Post by: BB12 on Monday, May 28, 2007, 22:24:11 How much would you be paying for the insurance on an R32 Ralphster ?
Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 22:27:12 Quote from: "BB12" How much would you be paying for the insurance on an R32 Ralphster ? About the same i do on my Type R, £950 a year. Title: Help Deciding Post by: BB12 on Monday, May 28, 2007, 22:57:47 Quote from: "Ralphy" About the same i do on my Type R, £950 a year. £20 per week ? Ouch !! Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:01:07 Yeah easily.
Group 17 insurance. Consider that i'm 26 in august and have 5 years no claims and a clean licence too! Imagine what an 18 year old would pay on one. Title: Help Deciding Post by: Sade on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:06:53 You know it makes sense......
http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c258/Sadie09/MINT.jpg Lush cars to drive and very reliable is the old focus 8) Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:08:16 I like them Sadieo.
Their quick, nice sound from the 5 cylinder engine but it's a Ford. Thats the only thing putting me off. Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:13:08 Orange car would go down a storm with the trust too!
Title: Help Deciding Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:14:18 Your insurance will be about the same as mine when I get my first car I expect Ralph :(
Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:17:58 Quote from: "simon pieman" Your insurance will be about the same as mine when I get my first car I expect Ralph :( Depends what you get Si. My sister is 19 and just insured a new VW Fox for £600. It's fucking slow as fuck though and looks shit. Title: Help Deciding Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:18:41 I'm not getting anything less than a 1.4
Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:21:39 What sort of car do you want? Hatchback? Saloon ?
Best small car you can buy is the Mini. Basically a small BMW and drives like one. Title: Help Deciding Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:33:00 Can't afford that. Going for a small hatch, probably spend around 3k. Not sure what yet, will have a look and see what I can find once I've got the summer exams out of the way
Title: Help Deciding Post by: Ralphy on Monday, May 28, 2007, 23:43:20 Could get an MG ZR 1.4.
