alright guys, the crx is going in autotrader next week

miles are getting high

i need something reliable for everyday driving and somethin with lowish miles

the ideas in my head are:

97/98 civic vti (3 or 5 door)
99 106 gti (they r quick and handle amazingly apparently)
96 328i coupe (running costs could be a nightmare though)

possibility i might be able to get insurance on a 97 integra type r and if i cn then that'll be it!!! but not looking likely

wot you guys think? which one or any recommendations

Integra is the one to for if you can afford the group 18 insurance and the car itself.

i'm only 19 so can't afford a 350Z!!!

i'm getting used to the vtec growl but they are very reliable

106gti is meant to be as quick as the crx and handle 100 times better (the crx scares the **** outta me)

bmw i am nearly sure would prove too hard to run

in order of my preferance so far then:
1 integra type r
2 106 gti
3 civic vti
4 bmw
5 ??

106 GTi are nice but bit cramped possibly?

very tidy lookin especially wit the alloys fo a gti-6 306 thrown on an slammed

beemer's pure pimp and nice to drive if u can afford to run it i wud go thatroute i think!!!

vti nice too but gettin common and the integra's a pure racin beast :p

A vti would be quickest of the lot (well bar top end on the 328i) and probably the cheapest to run/definitely the most reliable. Integra is my non listed choice and possibly my next car :p

Oh and if you've loads of cash buy my car :laughing:

He was insured under his dads name on the CRX if I remember right.
All fine and dandy now but when going for your own policy its not much use.
