wanting to sell the corsa at the moment, but unsure what to do afterwards.
will either get a faster, larger car which will be more comfortable, or a cheap runaround car and a motorbike.
turn 21 in may so will do direct access then. thinking about a new suzuki bandit or honda hornet, or a second hand 600 sports bike like r6, cbr, gsx-r or zx-6r. summer's nearly here, so would be quality to get a couple of months decent biking weather in, but not sure if i'd miss modding a car.
any opinions or ideas?

Get an R6, the are soooooo nice and quick, and mod it. Nitrous on bikes goes really well.

mm dunno what car i would get really. would want decent speed and nice level of build/comfort. plus needs to be insurable.
don't really want to be tied down with finance for another three years otherwise i would probably get a mk4 golf tdi or something.
could spend £3.5-4k on a nice bike and get an old 306 or similar as a runaround.

well, yeah that'd be the ideal really. think i'm prollly too late for the 4dr that was going cheap, but still thinking about a vti hatch or a high spec coupe if a low enough mileage one is going for a good enough price.
problem is the honda is gona cost a fortune to mod i reckon.
