I would love a lotus Elise.
Failing that something that has a really noisy turbo on it. Softtop. vented disc brakes all round and CD player.
Was gonna get a 206 HDI, but after taking one for a test drive I changed my mind. Then i tested a Focus TD coulda walked faster.
I know my current car (sierra Sapphire) isnt fast but I do like it.

That would be a Smart Roadster then. Ok the turbo isn't that noisy but you could always fit a dump valve & it comes with paddle gear shift on the steering wheel

Yeah I saw that - it looked brilliant fun to drive, almost like the nearest you'd get to flying while on the ground. But £22K aargh!
Clarksons story about having to be driven home sitting in the back was funny.

It's awfull, no offence, I guess you either hate them or love them.
I hate everyhting about the smarts, they aint smart and the grear change auto or semi auto is so far away from smart.

Personally I prefer the Primera...
But if you want a small sports car why not look around for a Honda Beat?
Small, convertible and only 600cc

Another one of these, I'm on my 6th at the moment, they have come along way from the tanks of the 70's.
