im currently hunting for a mint Integra DC2 to move on to

will miss the 2 but its just not practical enough now

ive got a mini cooper s at the minute but theres a chance i will be promoted soon and get a company car so the plan is to sell the mini and mr2 and buy a weekend car.

vx220 turbo is top of the list at the moment

or possibly a honda engine elise.

My brother has a vx220 turbo, and they are awesome cars! Recommended!

Not that cheap to tune, but the engine has lots of potential.

And its fun bullying boxters, not only on the straights, but when you get to the bends too!

id hunt down one thats already had the money spent on it.

had enough of throwing money away modding cars.

The only way you can avoid that is by buying a train ticket

My bros one was about £16k, low miles in black, thorney exhaust and uprated brakes. 54 plate i think.

[hicks]

i was looking at one on pistonhead that was up for 13k.

black 53plate with a stage 3 conversion and about 240bhp.

all black with sprayed window surround, black wheels a front griffin badge sprayed. very mean looking thing

I know the feeling...

I think your onto a good thing mate - though far too spartan for a daily driver, the VX220 is an ideal track or weekend car.

So much performance out of the box and reasonably priced too.

Good luck.

go for a honda elise if the funds alow as this is widely considered the best of the elise,exige,vx220,europa group. They really are very fast and drive very well, although a vx220 turbo is still a very nice car and probabily cheaper. have you considered a 1.8 tubo VAG engined elise too?

[hicks]

not really look at the 1.8t elises.

would rather go for the honda engine as its a much better engine and feel it fits the elise better (if you know what i mean.)
