Well as some of you may remember our astra was written off
so we hunted for a new car
Here is the old girl
So we decided to go for fun this time with a 10-12k budget
So first car was
Astra VXRacing Edition edition
power was great but just didnt excite for some reason think it may have been down to owning the TT
next
Focus ST
can not believe they do not come with Cruise control also felt like a boat althou great engine just felt to heavy
next Civic type R
just couldnt get comfortable with having to rev it so high
Leon Cupra
Now this was great was an 07 plate so pre facelift both me and the misses loved it but I said lets go try the facelift as i know its got a different suspension set up, we walked into a local SEAT and turns out the Salesman was someone i had dealt with
So after i very healthy discount we decided to blow the budget
Meet our brand new LCR
2.0 Turbo
had it RR today and managed 280bhp!!!! and thats standard
