well i would say thats down to opinion but whats the point in having a slow sports car, and if you need the practicality of an estate.....................

Wait, what about the V6 C5 route, do they do manual ones these days?

Well, as said it is just a pipe dream, I like the looks of them and I am sure one would be quite quick enough for me.
Not likely to ever get one though.

That looks OK Dean.
Trouble is they are generally cheap and thrashed to bits or decent and expensive.
I had the chance of one a few years ago, one of my workmates used to turn up in one now and again (wasn't his) and It was on offer for £4,000 but needed a new exhaust that supposedly had to be ordered from Japan and cost over £1,000 so passed on it.
Wasn't until a long while after that I thought of a custom made s/s exhaust :(

I can't really justify two cars though and the practicality of the C5 estate wins most arguments with regard to frivolous expenditure on toys.

The problem with that is that a remapped C5 Diesel estate would be as fast, if not faster in the real world. 175BHP really isn't a lot these days, it won't have anywhere near as much torque as a diesel.

I don't think it's right to call anything with less than 275BHP a sportscar these days :-)

Back on topic for a moment...

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Citroen-2cv-Y ... 500wt_1287" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
A4 ArtPrint of my 2cv which was stolen on New Years Eve.

The print was taken prior to the theft of the car which has recently been sighted in Denaby,Wath and Sheffield.

The car has been RECOVERED and is awaiting forensic examination.My SINCERE GRATITUDE to the thousands of you who looked at the ad and espesially to Robert who found the car and bagged the reward!

The ad for the ArtPrint has been removed twice by Ebay due to someone being unhappy that their nasty messages were posted on the ad for the print so I dont know how long this ad will last!

Again ,MANY THANKS for Everyones Help,...And Happy Bidding...LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL!!!!!!!!!!
