This looks like the perfect buy for you

And you'll have change to run and insure it

I think the car you are looking for is an Accord Type R, it eats M3's for breakfast

On second thoughts, you want a Yaris for that.

Just re-map a Golf 1.9 Tdi, then you'll easily pull away when doing 70 in 5th gear.

You could also spend £115k modding a Passat TDI, would be the ultimate sleeper

Just make sure you purchase an uprated clutch...

A hire car is supposed to be the fastest car.
£120K will buy a lot of car hire.

About to post a similarly expansive thread, albeit with a budget around a tenth of that.

Preparing myself for the inevitable OcUK response with some councilling and yoga currently.

I don't get it. Is there a point to the thread or is it some mildly amusing, but very tenuous, link to another recent thread?

Housey hasn't taken his medication

Dup · 9 Dec 2009 at 11:11

I think Housey gets altitude sickness all the way up there *cranes neck from poop deck*.

Yes, February, though it might be 2078, i'll know next Thursday....perhaps, depends on if it snows in Ibiza.

I know some people who know some people who hire a guy who has a sister who owns several Snow machines which should cover Ibiza nicely.

It is on!

Surely can't be my thread :rolleyes:

I think the point is that there have been a few threads around mostly asking the same thing, and because their seems to be similarities it causes him some unfathomable neural discomfort... or something.

Ah I see. That makes more sense now. Carry on!

PS. LOL at having "girls

" in your interests in your profile.

And yey it was written; the best way to avoid spam was to create another spam thread.

Personally I think you should buy something for 10k and bank the rest to run it.

Count the "spec me a new sports car" threads and then count the "here is my new sports car" threads and you will perhaps see where I was coming from. It was a general point after a long day of arguing with idiots (no inference I hasten to add) and your thread was merely the catalyst for my 'bar humbug' moment, it really wasn't aimed at you old boy. Can't wait to see your Lotus.
