This R5 is a minter as well, just had a full respray, smooth boot, full leather interior from a Renualt 19 16v.

I would'nt sell the GT to buy the R5, I would get a couple of my mates to chip and and buy it together.

Then we have a little pocket rocket to do up.

I've just got hold of a 2nd hand CAT for £50, thats only done 30,000 miles so I can afford to get the engine mount done as well

No, I like my Punto and its a lot newer.

We would'nt fight as Richmond has got his Saxo (FastCar coming to feature it on Sunday) and my other mate has got his brand new Astra SXi.

Becasue i prefer the shape of the R5GTT to the punto. The engines are more tunable, theres lots of kits etc out there, engine can be made more pretty.

OK, they are older, but then, i'd rather have a few old american cars, but there much older.

Different tastes Vibrio, remember!

I would as well, but I prefer a newer car.

How come everyone wants to buy the R5?
