Like an MX5?

I dont get why you keep bringing it up I dont badge whore, I went from a Clio - the type of sh*theap French car Id been driving for years - to something reliably Japanese, well sold and highly praised. Its not a car to brag about, and I dont tbh, but I do take a bit more pride in it. Half the people on this forum are obsessed with one badge or another anyway. I choose a car based on what is good and fitting for the moment, so a dirt cheap MX-5 to throw round corners with a bit of nip behind it (no pun intended) fitted the bill exactly. And youre less of a taxi service candidate when you only have two seats and drive like a nutter

Ive been looking at stepping up to something saloon based recently anyhow. Maybe an Audi or suchlike. I sure wouldnt go for an Impreza though.

Anyway Im dragging this thread OT, I hope youre happy with what you get Bartop, thats what counts at the end of the day. You seem to know what you like and what youre doing

Hehe im messing around, knew you would snap to that remark..

edit. ps

this is a barry car

the reason why the impreza is so popular with "chavs" is because is a fantastic car! not as good as the evo nowadays, but nonetheless a great car
personally id not buy a scooby or an evo right now (if i had the cash) id get something like a focus ST, or vauxhall VXR or an even faster vauxhall VXR8. There are 2 reasons for this, the styling is spot on, and because theyre from ford and vaux respectively, servicing and parts will be much cheaper than a japanese car, and in this day and age cars are much more reliable, volkswagon has lost its image of "never breaking down" because it was relative to other manufacturers whose reliability was a bit iffy, but now everyone is on an even keel
