Was thinking about this, what would be best for track days. An almost standard honda integra type r for around £4000 for something half decent. Or buy a gti 6 and spend money on suspension and brakes.

Can anyone think of any other cars that would be good etc, did think about a seat ibiza cupra turbo, can be tuned to around 260bhp for not very much at all.

EVO 4 mate. Great handling - Turbo Charged. Loads of people around to Map them as well for some extra horses with the correct supporting mods.

Trouble is mate is anything breaks on the evo then will cost loads, plus more insurance more tax.

I would say Integra would be the better platform. Even in standard guise, its a great tool. Very stiff chasis, good weight distribution - generates unreasonable mechanical grip. And has an LSD as standard.

ITR ftw i went out in Jon's (CUJ) at Llandow and for a standard (ish) car it was quick and i was impressed his is a DC5 and with your budget your probably looking at a DC2 which are a bit slower, trouble with the ibiza yes they are quick in a straight line but im yet to drive 1 that comes close to the 306/309 handling, if its an all out track car i'd go 205/309 with an mi16 or gti6

Leon Cupra R?

though for track use have to say a n/a car would be a lot easier to drive quick, so something like a 6 or an integra would do well, or even a civic.

beware that the older hondas can rot just as well as anything french...

if you dont mind something older I'd personally go 309 with a 16v engine plus some AST's and torsion bars or a coilover rear conversion.

I didn't think the DC5 was any quicker than the DC2 tbh, heavier car but a lot nicer place to be (IMO) than a DC2.

The DC2 was often acclaimed as the best front wheel drive hot hatch of its time, I've never driven one so can't comment. I know khj100 (Kev) owned one. There's some good footage of his on YouTube at the Ring.

pick up a slightly untidy 205 gti6 for around 2 grand, and then spend the last 2k on decent suspension and tyres and you will have a bit of a weapon.

My other halves mum bought a 172 cup yesterday and I took it out and gave it some abuse and I have to say they are a very capable motor! Not really my cup of tea due to it's size and seating position but I was pretty impressed. Expected it to be quicker than the 6 and it wasn't. However they are blinding in the twisties and a fun drive.

You mean apart from the fact its a clio????

Well i dont like the seating position nor the look and feel of the steering wheel.

Also the fact they are basically the new version of a saxo - whilst they can be a very good car everyone has one.
