Best thing ya can do jess is drive the cars be it 106 whatever if the drive suits ya everything else can be personalised,so what if its a common car if its rewarding to drive for YOU buy it, fuck everyone else-if whatever car that is puts a smile on your face both when you look at and drive it and aint gonna be beyond what ya can afford to run its right for you.

I didnt buy a scooby coz it were different,though there werent many classics in town when i first got mine-would say it were 60%how they drive 40% looks-interiors are crap basically take the 2 front seats out an ya left with almost any cheap jap interior from any early 90`s std saloon- it really lets em down,just depends where ya priorities lie-i always buy cars on performance and way they drive, looks are important but not as important-especially if ya intend personalizing it anyway.

when i bought the 106gti were actually looking at saxo`s started looking at vtr`s but drove one an it were slower than the xr2 i already had-drove a vts an thought yer better but still not great,drove the pug and for some reason just felt a better drive ordered one after the test drive,this were bk in 1999 did 43,000 mile and only had a abs wheel sensor go and both front balljoints though ran it with billsteins pretty hard so didnt help that-i definately werent complaining.

one of the lowest maintenance cars ive ever had.(remember i owned one from new though, loads have been abused now)

Or you could stick with the idea of one of these till insurance is a little more friendly:

Is that ideal or what-jess get ya money out

Already looked at them and decided against.

I'd always be thinking "I wish this was a Pulsar", and with the amount of mileage most of them have got on em it isn't worth it. When I eventually get a Pulsar it's gunna have to be the real deal.

You`ll be really lucky to find a "good"pulsar jess trust me regardless of mileage(hope youre a patient person-ya gotta be with them)

Mileage wouldnt bother me that much on a nissan to be honest so long as its been serviced regularly-i swear to ya that old micra of mine dont use a drop of oil/water at 124,000miles has no leaks whatsoever and starts with half a turn of the key-really has opened my eyes to nissan reliability in general and usually they are good engines however ppl with pulsars tend to up the power forgetting about everything else not designed to take it makin em unreliable.

turn the boost up and drive it hard and there will only be 1 out come, and thats if the chocolate box does not give up the ghost.
