I'm surprised no one has suggested one of these.... very quick as standard, massive tuning potential, practical space and handles nicely!!!

There is a few of us down here that cover quite an area between us with homes and work, if you spot something you like then it might be worth posting it up on here and if one of us are close enough maybe someone could give it a once over to potentially save you a wasted journey.... I'd be happy to should I be in the vicinity!Iv been offere one off a friend but I don't want to be part of the v tec Crüe

Love u reallyPrick!
That would be magiccheers for that it seem all the good bmw dealer history is in London area.. Plenty in notts but I wouldn't buy a car from notts as a rule.. They just seem better looked after in London 100000 with full bmw history £2995 I don't think that's bad
For the money, your silly not to consider the EP3 Type R, regardless of hear say.
And.....?Obviously your choice wood, but I'd go for the type r over a 325.

But for that money and that miles im sure its had its red line time with any owner..For the money, your silly not to consider the EP3 Type R, regardless of hear say.
Well the mrs has finaaly come to her senses and decided shes not going back to work yet and instead going to become a full time house mum so the bmw is out the question. So now its time to look at 1.0 lol but that now frees up cash to go adaptronic on the 5
So any ideas on small fun cars? Cheap tax ect?
Clio DCI?
back to 172 imo, get one for a grand and they're great fun. just tax and insurance that stings a little bit. but you cant have everything for nothing

No, definitely this:

Proper fun, proper cheap.
The 172 is just out of my realistic tax/fuel range I think
Odd so the 1.3 is 100bhp and the 106 is 103 bhp could be quite fun really
Apparently the 1.3 is just as good if not better than the 1.6.
Ok so a type r on 82000 looks clean and a guy I know 2k sound ok? He's got it up for 2.5k 02reg
Sounds ok, what colour and is it a A/C model? Another you may not of considered is a Mark 4 Golf GTI, lot of car for the money, cheap etc with the bonus of using it as a engine swap if you decide.
a/c model you mean air con? Not asked dose this matter?
What is the insurance and tax like on the Type R though?
Tax is £285and insurance no more than others iv looked at really..
You know since looking for motors it's really made me realise how good my 5 really is
More desirable and sell for more, red always sell for less and hard to sell colour with these cars.
Here my old one from back in 07.
Great advise thanks my cousin will look it over he's big on his jap stuff and that's the same model and color just has black wheels and a full stainless he still has the original exhuast.. 8 owners since newthough. New tyres and only done 1028 miles in two years as he works away a lot. A couple of scratches but nothing massive and the engine bay is dusty but dry with no nasty noises.. Going to see it over the weekend I know a lot don't like them but iv heard the typical good and bad stories about every car iv looked at really. Thanks for the advise I will take it all in..
I have driven one of these in anger on many occasions, you won't be disappointed that's for sure, handle sublime, built well and jokes aside hitting that v-tec in every gear is awesome.

Wow great info just got another £300 of the asking price from this he hadn't had the advisories done for two years top man I owe you a beers.. Never used this before
Type r has my vote.I loved mine.I sold my 172 with only 600 miles on it to buy one.I bounced mine off the rev limiter all the time as you forget to change gear in these things.I may even buy another myself soon.
I've caught so many sellers out with this online check, I always do this now.Wow great info just got another £300 of the asking price from this he hadn't had the advisories done for two years top man I owe you a beers.. Never used this before
I almost bought a 172 or a rotten clio Williams but opted for this instead as a daily...
£300 to insure, 42mpg and cheap to fix, and I get a lot of comments about it... it's nice to own 2 rare cars and be able to drive one everyday
You haven't told us anything about how it is to drive Lee?
My mistake! I presumed everybody knew how fun they areYou haven't told us anything about how it is to drive Lee?
I emailed the guy with the white one in the picture lets just say he didn't exactly try and sell it so I left it. Looked nice and all that but if he's not willing to put an effort in and fill me with excitement I'm not paying
Going to look at a 182 cup tonight frsh 80k miles and supposed tobe immaculate I hope so it's costing more than I wanted to pay but we will see
Full Fat is what you want mate, don't overpay for a cup
Looks like that Pug has been sold since.
The 182 sounds nice.
£2800 full flocked dash with carbon inserts new brakes all round just two stone chips and one slight ding. Apart from that is pretty tidy It's been re mapped with pop bangs lol (that will piss the mrs off)Full Fat is what you want mate, don't overpay for a cup
Not a bad motor all belts done 10000 ago it's the orangey color one lol
Young dude really is heart broken to sell it
Now iv slept onit is this really worth £2800? There's loads out there but this one has all the basics already done scorpion exhaust new brakes already lowered new shocks etc etc. I just couldn't drive it as he wasn't insured so got to go back Monday..
See if this pic of the clio works

Did that not work?
What a cracking car! XMy mistake! I presumed everybody knew how fun they are
Ron paid a grand less for a Full Fat..............
And then £600 on belts lol I know I want it all done bud
Can't make my mind up nowneed to be sensible I think car searching wrecks my head
**** it iv given up on finding another car to look after.. I'm going adaptronic on the 5Can't make my mind up now
Hunting cars suck!!
What's people's views on fiesta st?
Hammond loves them!!!
Not a lot of motors tick my boxes anymore.. Small and turbo is were I'm at I think
They aren't turbo charged but I've always liked the Lupo and Polo Gti's. Not sure they fit your bill to be honest and they are a bit cutesy but I like them
