the666ers Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Currently winning THIS on ebay so hopefully that will be my first car. Insurance is 1400 and thats the first quote I cared to look for so I could probably find cheaper elsewhere. Any experts have any pointers on what to look out for bar the obvious rust, etc etc....

deagledaddy Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Guys Guys Guys, no need to wet your pants over a VTR. There not that hot. (But still sweet enough for a first car) VTS's are the biaches to have, but thats really not gonna happen for a few years :( Would probably give your mini a decent run for money too prawn. I did't get a VTR as me no likey the pedal positions, plus tis french lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Peters Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Ive got a Silver Vtr, the pedal positions are close, but as a result really good for heal and toe, which sounds and works mental if you get it right. Having full no claims now my insurance fully comp with all extras quoted is just under £600. NICE pics soon, oh and i might be selling it....

James Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 joes right. some people just dont like minis, so leave it be! vtrs are really sexy cars, i really want one after owning a standard saxo 1.0i for a few weeks and visiting forums, vtrs are just beautiful! but yeh the pedals on all saxos and peugeot 106's are made for small girls feet, u get used to em though definately. slingers a lucky bloke to get one, i know people round here who get nice cars bought for em, i dont know who paid for his but im admitedly jealous becuase my parents went for the smallest, cheapest, but reasonably safe car they could find. its a bitch that male insurance has to be so high. fair play to him. dont crash it!
