I have an FTO GPX until it caused me that much grief I flogged it. It was fun until the Gearbox disintegrated.

Any Japanese car owners? - Scoobs,Evos etc

Nissan 200 here. Chances of it making another 5 years to 'classic' insurance age are so so, let alone getting to 25 to qualify for this forum. Span it at the ring this year and was very lucky to get away with only pulling the front bumper off. I'd like to say all its other scratches and dents are drift scars and cone damage but its my lovely sheffield fellow terrace and work car parking residents whos had it in for it. Looking a bit tatty these days though I do make efforts mechanically to keep it sound.

I've said before, if I ever get to 9 points I'd sell it and buy something like an MGbgt or old 70's merc (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=250037126842&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=015). That is unless I ever get shacked up and have kids and am forced to be sensible.

I love Japanese cars. When I was in Japan a few weeks ago I saw a fantastic 1970s Skyline. Any classic car enthusiast who hasn't seen a early Skyline should check them out.
