theres more but these are the only ones I acctually liked...

Ax gt (funny little rattly car)
405 MI16
205gti x2 (1 soon changed to an MI16..... great car want another as a track car)
Pulsar GTIR (want another 1 of these really badly, so much fun but at a cost.....)
Then to keep the misus sweet a nice sensible revo'd cupra R (In the buying and building house stage so need to be a bit sensible for a year or 2)
Good car but kinda expected more.. power as expected really apart from the big amount of heat soak, brakes are superb which is why i went for the R,
build quality isn't as good as I thought it'd be having had numerous problems and rattles from a 25k miles car.
The handling is appauling. Well i shouldn't be that nasty you can get a good shift on but really try pushing it and the poor cupra starts tying itsself in knotts. For such a firm crashy ride it is really sogy when you drive it hard... Probably soon sort with a decent coil over setup but unless anything breaks I have orders that I'm not alowed to start modifying it.. Dam that woman!!!!!
