That's a bargain for such a low miler.

Sold mine because I am earning more I can afford a lotus and a daily driver but I think I will end up coming back to it.

It would be the perfect car to run alongside a caterham or something similar, I wish they sold them here as a proper UK car.

This is the real type-r:- http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/to ... 373198&p=1

I think the road tax system still needs to be in place so people still get their cars MOT'ed but maybe they should call it something else like a vehicle licence fee for £10 that you can only get if your car has had an MOT.

Road tax should just be the cost of administering it i.e. £10, and then they should put 20p on petrol to make it up.

I have done this course in a s2000, it was a great laugh although I always felt a bit car sick at lunch :). I remember I was trying to show off to my passenger using left foot braking etc so I took the high speed bend at 120mph, we span goodness knows how many times in a cloud of burnt rubber...

Don't know if this has been said but this new focus rs is front wheel drive, I don't think the evo x has anything to worry about . :D

What I don't understand is their all made in this country (or at least I thought they were) and yet we get the crap version. The JDM has 4 doors, lsd, brembo brakes, better wheels, 1270kg, probably more power and was as quick as the dc5 round a Japanese test track.

The focus rs can't be that good, didn't evo say the special edition megane thing made the focus rs chassis seem silly or something?

I'm still trying to make up my mind what car I want. Ideally would want something like this - colour, spec and price- http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/100715.htm then add nitrons, oil coolers, and lotus sport remap.

One is mine and one is my brothers however I keep them both at my place. Trying to sell mine to buy a more track biased car and he is selling his because he has a baby coming. I'm not really bothered if mine sells as the weather has got better resulting in me realising how good this car is.

Ordered is well, always wanted one. cheers :D :D :D

Damn... can't find that car of the year article anywhere on the net :cry:

Anyone got a scan of when the trophy received car of the year?
