My girlfriend recenently wrote off her Celica and cant decide what to replace it with. She wants something a bit different/special, likes coupes and was looking at older cars around the £4k mark.. Mitsi FTO's, BMW 318TI's and Honda Integra's. I also suggested an early Mitsi Evo 2 or 3 which surprisingly she quite likes..

What would you choose and why? also please suggest any other decent cars which she might consider...

Thanks..

Do the mankind a favour and tell her to walk.

If you want her to survive, a Volvo 240 GLE will do; it has SIPS, air bags, very strong bumpers mounted on shockers, and it should keep her safe.

If she likes coupes, and wants a special car, how about a Bugatti Veyron ? You had better buy a baleclava for the bank job first :laugh:

Very funny guys.. :D

To be fair to her she got caught out in the snow after someone pulled out in front of her.

Volvo would be good but she doesnt like them.. :(

Nah, the Veyron is too ugly..



Trying to talk her into going halfers with me on a Mitsu Evo 6 RS Sprint, its a 99 plate but is imaculate, basically as new with only 7k miles on the clock, barely run in.. only £14K.. hmmmm decisions...

Fiat 500 is a pretty cool car. You can pre-order the convertable ones now I think.

No Fiat is cool, lets make that clear.

I'm sorry but you haven't a clue. The Fiat 500 is cool.

Practically every Fiat is uncool. The exception to the rule is the Fiat 500. :)

The proper Fiat 500 is cooler though. Which annoyingly makes my dad a very cool person. Perhaps. :mark:

Imagine this in dark blue and that's what's sitting in my dad's shed in Perth fully restored :)
