    fed up with the wife

    my wife cant park the legnum at all , i am now a car short of a front bumper . i refuse to sell it as i honestly think its the best all round car i have owned or even been in.

    so i am now thinking of a little run around for her with the added thought of turning it into a little track day car in the future when money is more available (loan finishes in 18 months)

    dont want to spend over 1k

    my 1st car was a metro 1.4 GTI 16v it weighed nothing and it did fly so thinking along them lines again but with a mgf 1.8l engine fitted though (after she has got her use out of it )

    What else is there - Nova , 106 , saxo ?????????????

    106 gti, saxo vts, was thinking something similar for a run around to work as the vr4 is such a thirsty bugger!
