Torn between cars!!

[Leon.]

So, I've had my '98 rev4 NA since last June and love it. Its only got 24k on the clock, immaculate, great running order.........

But something's just eating away at me!! Should I get a turbo?? My ideal car would be a rev 4 turbo tbar (my current one has a sunroof), probably in red or a blue. So the main upgrade would be turbo and tbar I would be able to spend £7k or so.......

I love the thought of getting my ideal car that I can really personalise (in small ways of course!), and I keep thinking hmmmmm, should I buy that mod now for my current car, or wait 'til I upgrade, if I do. Arghhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!

Its just not that easy to give her up!! I'm concerned that if I sell my babe I may not find another one in as good condition Oh dear, its getting late and I'm all emotional now

Please help

You might struggle to get a rev4 t bar tubby for that money. maybe a late rev3 though. Not really much difference between the two

[shafster]

yep a rev4 will be hard to get hold of for that money but not impossible.

although you could pick up a certain black trd widebody for that price

[John Rees]

You can have mine for 7k

Seriously though NO YOU CAN'T

It will be interesting to see if you can find one, good luck Leeroy.
Have you found any close to that price yet mate?

nope if i do sell it, im gonna sell the car as it is. the reason being as it has cost me just over 7k and i was not really looking to spend that much on the car

so i will have to wait and see how it goes. if you do decide you like it/ want it. drop me a pm

rev4's are about 8k at the mo but you can pick them up cheaper every so often

I had the same car a low mileage Azure Blue Met REV4 UK car and sold it for a Tubby which is 3 years older, mind you I made sure it was a mint one with low mileage. I just wanted loads more power as lots of hatchbacks were annoying me... if you know what I mean!

Now, I don't have that problem any more.

So, what was the reg!!

I know what you mean about the little sh1ts!!

well, I think I'm gona have to do it then....... can people recommend good places to look apart from IMOC and Autotrader!

Cheers

[shafster]

imoc and autotrader will be the cheapest and after those, you can check out all the traders like JDI, Newera etc etc but expect to pay premiums of over 1k on equivalent cars.

Cheers Shaf

Any chance of listing those 'etc etc' cos I don't know which are the reputable ones!!

[Taz007]

shaf u selling up already????

tough choice youve got there - u should be able to sell ur n/a for good money and with that mileage its a cert!

go for the turbo if ur after more power otherwise keep the n/a

[Leon.]

Thanks Taz

So, have you owned both before? If so, which did you prefer?

So, now you have the tubby, would you recommend 'upgrading' - horrible word!! Something I like about the NA, obviously, is the progressive power!

I know some people hate it but its worth keeping an eye on ebay as there are a few importers who sell there or private sales.

I have bought a few cars off ebay as has a mate of mine and generally you can get good ones but you have to be careful!! - make sure you look at them first and look at the persons feedback, ask questions, etc

Good luck with your search
