My cars, and what to do with them.. ?

[GT-Steve]

Ok, so I have a couple of cars laying around, not doing a lot, and I feel I need to pull my finger out and decide what to do..... I currently have:

1997 200sx - stripped out, one seat, loads of time and effort put into engine, suspension, and reducing weight, in order to create a drift car, to have fun in..

2000 Mistsubishi Evo 6 - UK car, standard engine, just an exhaust and wheels on the modification list, low mileage.

So... do I flog one to make the other 'complete' (either way, one of them could be a track car to have some weekend fun in) and if so, which, for which?

But I'm hankering after a 3-door Sierra Cosworth again, so do I flog them both to fund that purchase??



Dilemmas, dilemmas.... what would you do, of the above options..?

sell the 200sx and keep the evo. I do love cossys myself ,but i think the evo would be a better car.

Nice dilemma to have.

I have just 'scrapped' the G Wagen project I had, sold it on to someone else parting it out and getting rid. Same for the XJS, never was a goer that one.

Putting my pennies together for the Lancia that is still available at the moment, hope to have that secured by December and inside somewhere warm for an initial work over to get it mechanically 100% by February, in time for some classic rallying.

Intergrale?

steve , sell both of them and buy a 3-door it'll cost half as much to keep going than the evo and the 200sx . theres some stunners on the rsoc for sale just now under £10,000 that are well known to the site

you cannie beat an old cossie on the track

Intergrale?

Yup, I was banging on about it ages ago. I have driven it and thought about it for ages.

Last time I checked it was still available.

I am what you might call a procrastinator.

8V later version.

Cheers fella,

As a former RSOC member, I'd only buy a 3-door from the club now...

Would hate to endup with a re-shelled 1600 ghia..

I'm also very good friends with a particular tuner of cosworths and evo's so the dilemma is even more difficult.

I love the evo, but I really want to have the pure escapism of driving sideways as well, and the gourgeous showcar-ness of a three door, but ala I cannae have all three lassie...

The beast in me wants this beast.

Love the Intergrale, how's the electrics??

was the 8v the Evo version? or was that the later one?
