A wee challenge

Can you buy a better, faster car for £2995?

320 RWHP MR2 Turbo

Go!

Depends what you mean by better.

I mean, you could pick up all manner of AWD Jap Turbo cars for £3k which would be undoubtedly better in the traction department than an MR2.

Better is Subjective
Faster is Objective

Faster, probubly not, but better, thats personal preference.

Plenty of GTO's around for less, could do doubt tweak them with the change to match it

Sparky · 20 Feb 2010 at 00:17

Id rather spend it on this

They may be a worse car, but I prefer these

They look like wee in the grey colour though, which 90% of them seem to be

Not as fast, but nicer imo.

RWHP

What's with this phrase cropping up all over the place these days? RWHP, really? Being a rear wheel drive I was expecting it to be FWHP.

Or maybe he was talking about the Rural Women's Health Project

Well it lets me know it is making the power at the wheels and not the flywheel. I guess you could shorten it to WHP. If the 'r' really bothers you .... you must be doing alright

kaiowas · 20 Feb 2010 at 10:31

I could probably put the same engine in a mk1 for less. Would be much better

mk1_salami · 20 Feb 2010 at 10:33

If by BETTER you mean uglier, but faster then yes you could

mk1_salami · 20 Feb 2010 at 10:40

On a side note. I'm itching to buy this car but ...... don't have a spare £3k, haha.
