I'm trying to remember which movie it was, but they had one of these in a car chase with a ridiculous V8 soundtrack dubbed over the top :lol:

There seem to be loads of these on car and classic to be fair... and I am kind of taking a liking to the one I linked :oops:

Always kind of fancied one of these. It'd have to be the 16v though or I'd still keep wondering... (At least I recognise my own failings!)

Go on, jj.... just one more car won't really notice... you can park it behind some of the others and when the Mrs eventually spots it say "What do you mean, we've had that one for years, you came with me to buy it, remember?!"

I'd hit it!

3rd gen steve had one of them and it was a fast car. His dad had the 16v version.

My one was a 16v aswell, it was just my dad's was a pre cat model so had about an extra 15 bhp. Both were pretty quick though!! My dads engine ended going into a 205 gti and running about 190 bhp. The guy had an m3 bmw evo and two lancer evo 5's but still used the pug as it was more fun!!
