Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Ok, so i've had the 4x4 and used it in the snow so im bored now.. I need four seats and five doors being realistic... plus I want performance and want to spend around 10k as its another stop gap till the little un is old enough to go in what I really want Ideally I would like to buy Jap but open to suggestions. I've had a Scooby so my thoughts is an Evo http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p Bit chavvy maybe, but im really struggling... Any suggestions Quote

You have to thing about child safety when your a father Danny boy ... Im sure it won't be long till you will be selling the Porsche for something more practical Quote
Sarnie Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 E46 M3. Thought about this.... Bad points... Not 5 door and doesn't handle great, still looks good and goes tho E46 M3 doesn't handle well???????????? I've had a E46 M3 when my boy was born upto when he was 12 months old, which was the most difficult time as they are in car seats that need to be put in and out of the car, and it was absolutely fine. If your kid is over 12 months then they should be in the bigger car seats that sit in your car permanently which makes things even easier. In fact in some cars, its easier to get your kid into the car seat from the front e.g like you have to with a 3 door car, than it is in a 5 door car where they access it from the side. E46 M3 would be a no brainer for me, plus you can get a half decent one for way less than £10k........ The 'rasp' was the only thing I didn't like, but it wouldn't put me off buying another.... Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted February 9, 2012 Author Posted February 9, 2012 I thought they might be a bit twitchy as i've seen a few binned in the snow but having never driven one I guess I can't comment. She's two now so has a permanent seat, I reckon a convertible one would be nice ? Is the rasp easily fixable with a new exhaust ? Quote
Greddy-Matt Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 If its a stop gap car and you want something You can fill with people /furniture etc, then drive at Mach 3 then maybe a Subaru leggy if you don't mind another subaru, cheap as chips to modify and so much fun! Theyre much more sleeper than the run of the mill scoobs and dont look chavvy either. Classy looks and plenty of poke with a little tweak would give you a properly nice velocipede with cash to spare Quote
EH 370z Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Long shot but ..... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3579177.htm Quote

That is actually a very very good call... would never have thought about that and rare as... Quote
Wasso Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Cant get the link from my app, but a Mazda3 MPS seems nice and spritely Quote
Chesterfield Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Seat Altea FR. It may be an oil burner, but its a 170 bhp, cheap insurance, NCAP 5, isofix, bluetooth, auto lights, wipers, cruise, heated seats. 2007, 37k, £7k ish. Oh and I have one I'm looking to shift Quote
MRH 350Z Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 At that price an E46 would get my vote. If you can budget a little higher: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3278791.htm Can't believe they still cost this at 92,000 miles - engine rebuild though! Quote
