Hi, i'm on the lookout for a fun car to use at the weekends, I have a budget of about 1500 pounds and i'm in Hampshire. I'm 37 with full no claims so anything goes really. I don't mind something that needs a bit of work but must have current mot. Cheers! Dave.

I've had an mr2 n/a not that quick but scared me! 2x 200sx s13 liked them a lot but not so many about now, prelude was ok but needed a lot of revs, On the other hand i love old cars too, Dolomites, imps etc etc I really want a Gt four and have the money for one but the missus would kill me if i spent any more than 1500, I think she'd like the mx5 more than me lol. I've seen a few mr2 roadsters going cheap, anyone have experience with one?

Some days you just need to take a grinder to an inanimate object, just to make your day a tiny bit better!!

Thanks for the input guys, sorry I didn't reply to some of the posts sooner. I have bought a car now, I'm not sure if i have made the right choice, its not very retro but I think i will wait for my dream retro car when i have a bit more money to spare, IE early 70s celica, 240z or rx4. A lot of saving up me thinks! I plumped for a hairdressers car.......Merc slk 230k. Lets hope i don't regret it! Cheers! Dave.

"Understeer" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"Oversteer" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence.
"Torque" is how far you take the fence with you
