Fast Cars of the 90's

[Bubbs]

Just looking for my next car, and faniced something fun for a few months. Been looking at all the older cars that have the fun factor.

Looking at the VW Golf II G60, Golf VR6, Supra etc.

For the life of me I can't think of anymore... could you kind members of bcf please illuminate me... thanks.

Mk2 MR2, 300ZX, RX7, any 6 cylinder BMW 3 series (Inc M3), Classic impreza. In fact, the only car I'd count on your list is the Supra, but it pretty much isn't as much fun as an MR2 or M3.

Hi

What kind of budget?

Alfa GTV or Fiat Coupe for a lowish budget. Lotus Esprit for a higher budget

All the best

I always wanted a Rover Tomcat 220 in the late 90's / early 00's. Insurance said no.

[Boxing]

I know of a few "chavvy" ones.

Vauxhall Astra MK2 16V GTE
Ford Escort RS Turbo
Ford Fiesta RS Turbo
Vauxhall Nova GTE / GSI (Or just a Nova base with a C20LET engine quick in straight lines)
Vauxhall Cavalier SRI / 4X4 turbo.
Mercedes 190E Cosworth

The Ford Sierra RS Cosworth is the car I'd pick if I had enough ££££ for it and insurance.

Most of these cars probably won't be to your tastes though.

[J4mes]

Probably an Evo 5 for me in that budget!

[Nexus Icon]

For that budget I'd go R33 GTsT Skyline, ST205 GT-Four Celica or MR2 GT-Turbo. You'll get a fine, lowish mileage example for £5,000 - £6,000 of any of those three.

It'd just depend how many seats I wanted.

Lots of Sapphire Cossie mention, but no Escort Cossie?

Do you want to drive it anywhere or just look at it? A 400bhp car will drink 400bhp's worth of petrol.

MR2 or MX5 for fun. Well under your budget and you could probably sell it for what you paid for it.

Keep some money set aside for parts and servicing. Unless you're paying (getting fleeced) top dollar for a perfect car, it will need some money spent on it.

Put an Impreza on your list as well.

[Acemastr]

An impreza will bore the shit out of you coming from a bike, 'ish' power and 4wd = boring

MR2's are fantastic fun, even the NA ones, a bmw 330Ci isn't as quick as you'd believe.
Not sure what all the love for the cosworths is about, 200bhp standard? no thanks.

Well I had a 306 1.9TD and it was by far the most fun car I ever drove, and it was great on fuel.

Is that from the 90s?
