Then you will probably just end up fitting the same stuff to the car so really just gonna be a different colour.
Buy a mk4 astra hatch or coupe if you want a change mate.
PS those irmy skirts i have for sale would look nice on it

no such thing as a flawless engine.
the way I look at it is, redtops came out in 87. that's 23years old, older than some of the lads on here. and there still goin strong. gotta be doin something right.
even new engines like fiesta st's still can't compete.
and they blow spots off them ecowrecks

well from my personal experiance, ive had 2x redtops, both kept breaking and not running properly, and had 3x 16 sports and all ran well no matter how much shit i give them. couple of problems but no where near as much as redtops. i would prefur a tuned 16 any day, also id like to have a race with a redtop against my 16sport once its finished like. cos i think it will be rather interesting, if i had the choice id have what hodgys got the 18 small block
