SAAB is Dead, New Motor time.

Killed me SAAB today at mid day going down our local drag strip (M69)

Been shopping for summit fast & fun, Looked at an Old Scooby an Old EVOII & a Saxo VTR

Although I like the Evo the best I think I will go for the Saxo as it is a Lot cheaper not only to buy but to run & to repair. I am expecting repairs as this is just a toy & to be thrashed & enjoyed.

On the test run it was Mental, It runs 205's so sticks to the road like crap to a horse hair blanket.

Not really a top end car but definately a good little street racer from 0 - say 90ish

The Evo was Monsterous, 300bhp & more grip than a power lifter

Kin thing hurts you when you proper push it round the bendy bits

I want it but my mate who owns it likes it to much & wants too much money for it at the mo, Maybe I'll be able to nick it off him in the future.

Old Scooby, Well that was just an Old Scooby, On another day I may have been tempted but next to the Evo it just didn't get me going. On a side note my mate who owns it is a Complete mad man & goes out drifting on a weekly basis & taking on one of his cast offs can be a bit costly.

Anyway heres a pic of the Saxo VTR whoopassmakemefeel17againrollerskate

Needs a damn good clean & it looks like the bonnet is off a different motor to me, No crash damage anywhere though.
Thoughts ?

SAAB Loss = Screen price was 675, I kicked him down to 475 but after getting a noise from the engine kicked that down to 300 quid. Sold my Jeep for 150 quid the same day so I am down 150 quid, These things happen & I must say I am taking it well.

It was far to slow & gives me the best excuse to buy myself summit faster & more fun.
