WTF are you on. I just don't want to step into any car. I want to get a car I like which is good for a first car. I'm sorry if I like cars and just don't see them as a way to get around like others do.
One thing, why don't you STFU and get out of my thread? Don't get all pissy after this reply either as you've basically asked for such a reply.
Even when Tristan posts in here he actually says what the car is like and whats not so good about it.
I just find you annoying, yes you might like cars and so do i and im also thinking about modding mine when i get it but atleast my ideas are actually realistic, yours aren't for a first car. Then your like "in a couple of years when i can handle it" you'll still probably smash it when you have more power in a car it can make it totally different that 2 years can't account for, you just have to not be a dick. But instead your saying "when i can handle it" when you should be saying "when ive grown up a bit and don't drive like an idiot". If you think you can make a 205 handle better than an evo in the corners then your really dreaming, how would you know anyway? Have you ever driven either of them or been in either of them?
Just because I don't put my full thoughts in here, I just put it in brief form really.
I know how well 205s can go. I know someone with a turbo'd one running just over 200bhp and it will leave his m3 evo in the twistys. Also have seen an Mi16 powered 205 chase Evo's around a track and if it was wide enough, would have easily passed the evo's.
I think what Pearcy is trying to say, is that your dreaming with your future plans. Everytime you have suggested a car, your always saying things like "i might do this engine swap once insurance has come down abit" or "im gonna buy one of these i think, then i'll get it remapped" (I lol'ed at remapping a 1.6 btw :razz. At the end of the day, you should just concentrate on getting the funds together for a car, and enjoy it! Your getting ahead of yourself by talking about all the stuff about you want to do to a car which as of now, you aren't even close to owning yet. Your not 17 until a good few months yet, and you wont pass your test until a month or two until after then.
Also, i think its abit silly of you to dismiss some cars that people are suggesting. Like for example, some of use suggested an MX5. You instantly threw that back in our face saying that they all leak, which is BS.
Tristan suggested a Polo. You threw that back in his face saying that you dont like them, when in reality, your not going to get anything better.
Just forget about this whole "First Car" business for a few months, and wait until your closer to getting your getting your licence. I've said this before, and i'll say it again. Things like the price of fuel/insurance/tax are going to change by February next year, so you may as well wait. Doing research beforehand is great, but banging on about on about modding this or that, or buying that and doing this is abit silly.
Meh. I can't even be assed to type out a proper reply. This really isn't the best place to ask about cars. I'll put a thread up on the car club I'm part of in a couple of months.
There isn't just modified civics on there. There is someone on there with a lambo. Some with a track viper which is currently being built, few cars like that on there.
I'm learning about cars on my own until when I hopefully get into Uni and do Motorsport Engineering and Design. Hopefully want to go to the Swansea Metropolitan University which was the first place to offer such course.
Edit: That R8 is ****ing hideous.
Do you really think Motorsport Engineering and Design will teach you about cars? They teach you about engineering, and instead of doing your aerodynamics lessons with a picture of a plane, they do it with a picture of a car. 95% of the course is the same as the Civil, Mechanical and Aeronautical engineering.
This is what im talking about, its good to have ambitions but you go over the top everytime planning every detail, all these plans you have, your going to have a very busy life...
What happened to creating your own software company or whatever you said lollll
It's very good to have ambitions so you know what you want in life and have something to work towards. FYI actually, Swansea Metropolitan Uni is a very good place to do motorsport engineering at, thats why I would like to go there, I'm started sixth form next week so I'm really on the first stage of my life, I need to pass these next two years to at least try and get into Uni.
I was thinking about being a programmer and was thinking if I was really that interested in it, I would be programming a bit now which I'm not. You have to be very interested to go far in programming. I've been interested in motorsport and cars since I can remember, so I might aswell make something out of it.
