At work so can't upload the pic of the Subaru I like ...

Size / seats / fuel won't be a issue as this will be my car. So something nippy / sound good :-)  ill post links I've been looking at later. And s2000 I like also but again never driven ..

Correct assessment of 4WD Golfs

 :notworthy: sums up what I was saying about the r32 and the s2000 is a great car having worked at Honda for years it's a screamer but needs to be driven hard  :driver: cheap car too also look the dogs modded

S2000 gets my vote from the list so far. Keeps on revving to 9 gazillion and the traction comes from the correct end of the car.  :driver:

I like that era of Scooby, and so long as it doesn't have 555 stickers all over it, I think it's escaped the chav image well.
