Agreed Matt thats most unpleasant.

Me & Melanie actually like that one the best - in the nice blue colour they do. Nearly got one instead of the fiesta - but too pricey for a banger @ Â£4k for a good one.

Nice motor

no horror stories from me.

Mate of mine had a Hyundai (or yundi as they seem to insist on calling it now) accent coupe from new and did nearly 80k miles in 3 years and had no problems with anything either falling off or stopping working.

how about a Nissan pulsar (sunny) gti-r 2.0 litre turbo

0-60 in about 5.7secs
top speed 140 mph
227BHP
group 20 insurance

about Â£5000ish for N-reg (not sure as it's been a while since i seen one for sale)

then you've got cash to spare for the one you love

I learnt to drive in a Nissan Sunny. Ok, back then, it was called a Datsun

Or was it a Cherry? No, I didn't pop it

i know im a bit late to chat about MGFs but i will anyway.

found out today that the Lotus elise uses the same engine as the MGF

well i never

now,this will upset loads of people,but do i care,id go for a SAXO,we have a T plate silver VTR.

it hurts me to say but it walks all over the cc,group 7,about 300 miles to the gallon,drives like a go-kart,were going to sell ours when got cc,not now,think the cc will go first.

I learnt to drive in a Nissan Sunny too! 2 weeks intensive, if you can call it that...Mon - Fri for 2 weeks, four people, 2 in the morning and two in the afternoon, with a fat sweaty bloke as an instructor who insisted on stopping at greasy spoon cafes every couple of hours. Result: 2 and a half hours driving per day each for 9 days, test on the 10th day. Passed! God knows how....
Still, after going into the West End of London on the 3rd day ever driving, if you don't master clutch control there you never will!
(Am i rambling? I've just finished a mega busy night shift and am starting to hallucinate...

I've been given a VERY short list of cars i'm allowed to buy....

Went and looked at Evo's earlier on (but ssshh! don't tell Julia!!)

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Evo is good though! Better than those other pieces of tin you were looking at!

Hey Ni"cc"k
Have you seen the TF in the grey colour. Mmmmmmmm!!!
The problem with the TF though is the noise when driving on the motorway with the roof up. You cant hold a proper conversation without shouting!

Nice car especially the electric blue looking colour, but beware, that the F2 and F2 Evo are different cars!! Nearly made that mistake a few years. the Evo is a much better looking car. If you can find one go for that price go for it.
