skylines gone out the window, cos of import laws are changing and cars built after 1997 need to meet new emissions tests and it doesnt.
plus they want more to insure and gtt than a gtr, for some unknown reason.

you won't insure a cossie/supra/fto at 21 for 1500. type r sounds like a good bet, pick up a good un for 10k aswell. how about a brand new clio 172 cup. another small car, but 11k brand new, 0-60 in 6.4, look nice and understated. focus st170? 306 GTi 6?

have trouble insuring a scoob for 1.5k, plus they cost a mint to run.
so far i reckon type r is still winning
