looked at cally turbo's
punto gt 1 2 and 3's
clios
saxo's (just as a look see not like id ever own one!)
astras
2.0 corsas <-- top of my list
think s13/14 would be out of my price range and insurance wise to much?
whats the insurance grp on them?

well i fancy a turbo to play with.
id also want a corsa again but it have to be a 2.0 or a turbo one.
dont like cav's (i know there calibra just made family sized just dont like em)
not keep on audi and 106's can gtf g/f mother has it and i swear its held together with blutak

easily get an s14 for £3.5k (not an s14a, unless it's a right dog).
insurance group on them is 17.
2ltr corsa would be based on a quote from grp15, then extra because it's modified, so you could probably insure one.
possibly a little longer than a cally, but not by any massive amount.
do it

s13 is the old one
s14 is fairly old now (up to '97 ?)
s14a is the more current one with much nicer front end, similar rear. up to 2001 i think.
s15 was never officially imported, but there are a few in britain. not a chance at £3.5k though.

holy crap! 2000 pounds? that's like 1 000 000 Rands South African! lol....well it feels like it...
anyways, 2000pounds should add up to more than R20 000 which is good for a HUGE turbo install....
yip...installing turbo's to car's in this country is VERY expensive because not alot of people here know how to do it...
heck...I don't know how to add a turbo to my 1.6 8valve and I can't think that it's difficuly. oh well....extorsion is what we run on here.

id actually buy a Astra GSI or Golf G60 then spend the leftovers on making it go that bit quicker
whoever mentioned spending 3.5k on a 106 rallye needs their head looked at
