Yeaaa that looks nice ! :d
I'd have one if one comes around for the sake of saving about £220 quid, would have to scrap a few plans though but i'd have £220 for wheel refurb/paint or something
Had a look at some for sale, go a bit cheaper too. One with 3 owners and 55k for less than £500 taxed and tested

5 doors are just cheaper :confused: Either because 3 door is considered more of a "sports" car, and they're built on stronger frames apparently. I dont get it either

only reason i can think is there less likely to be stolen - even thieves dont want to be seen in one lol

lol I was just thinking that i'm gonna get a lot of comments like that if i buy one ! If it prevents thefts though as you say then its win-win :p

Thats nice, like the colour scheme too. I recognise that from somewhere. Was it up on pistonheads ? TD ? or do you go to Netherfield / J27 ? (Saw your location)

We come to Mansfield for food sometimes after J27 on the way back to Southwell/Newark and then onwards sometimes, white nova gte c20xe, blue Silvia that will most likely be seen sideways, green carlton pick up with yellow stripes, decked saxo vtr (red one) and a mk1 civic and a white crx. Seen us ? lol
