Want a 2nd hand car.

Price would have to be around 5000 euro.

Cars im looking at would be a Ford Focus, VW Polo, Mitsubishi Colt, Honda Civic etc

Needs to be in good nick and reliable. Alloys too would be great. Milliage would not be of a huge concern but obvioulsy the lower the better.

Looking for 00 model if it possible. Ill pay more if the car warrents it.

You're not going to get a decent 00 focus for around 5 grand. You'd actually being paying nearly twice that for one of them. I'd go for a Polo if I were you, there are plenty around and they'd keep their value better than the civic or colt.

Alright ladies cop the fuck on!!

Rocky Black if you have nothing to contribute then say nothing...simple really

Back on topic..


Yea i know the focus is expensive. Looking at a Colt or a Polo. Thing about the Polo is that most are 1.0l enginees, slow out! The colt has a nippy but not too fuel unfriendly 1.3l

Does the Polo come in a 1.4??

I think so, but 1.4s would be rarer but worth a look around.
Nothing wrong with a colt either though, just depends on budget and what you want to go for yourself. The polo would just be the one I'd go for anyway.

Most of them are rare and expensive. I'd go for the peugeots first off anyway. Maybe the Civic type R after them.

The fella working with me is getting the GTI-R so will be selling his 106 GTI
if you'd like one!

Its standard enough, but he's just after getting a full Peugeot performance
Exhaust including manifold on it. Sounds sick. (€800)

He's after spending 1,000's on it getting it right, so you'll have nothing to do to it.

He's a perfectionist, and also has way too much money to burn.


Would be a very good car to buy!

or a VZR N1 better still - unfortunately the insurance companies are after copping to these now, stretch to 1.8 and get a lancer gsr 4wd 180bhp

Either black or that bluey/purple colour - and go find your own motors this ones mine ;-) 280 bhp and 255ft/lbs makes it quite the machine and wouldn't attract too much unwanted attention only problem would be the availability of parts, the engine might be similiar to a v5 impreza but otherwise there wouldn't be much out there

also they are mad thirsty, however 1500 fully comp for me, slightly less than my current and they area faster car than boxters,s4's s6s etc. a small turbo for cruising speed kicks in at 2500rpm and another at 5000 that is like a severe kick up the ass.

I want one - i want it now, you'll have to go to dublin for one though

Depends on the year and the engine size - 1.3 colt 97-98 put out about 70bhp i'd say, the 1.6 cyborg mivec puts out 160bhp
