what do u rekon is the fastest car i could buy for either £500 or £1000
second hand
i found a porsche 928 for £400
any other idea's?

Hmm...it all depends on the timing I guess. Some people don't really know what they have and sell something for very cheap. I can't really think of any specific examples, but just shop around and consider your options...don't jump on any one.

BTW, for all the ignorant Americans (:D:D), £500 - £1000 is $725 - $1450 USD

a few possibilities:

Sierra XR4x4 (I am a little biased though!!)
Mitsubishi Starion Turbo
Nissan Silvia Turbo
Toyota MR2
Rover SD1 V8
Fiat Uno Turbo
Escort RS Turbo
Renault 5 GT Turbo
Saab 900 / 9000 Turbo
Toyota Supra 3.0 Twin Turbo
Volvo 440 / 460 / 480 Turbo
Volvo 740 2.3 Turbo Intercooler

You can all of these for less than 1500 US dollars? Wow...just import me either a SR20DET and I'll sell it for 3000 dollars or send me a Supra TT (MKIV) and I'll sell that for $35K...taking advantage of "the Fast and the Frustrated" craze that has jacked up Sup Dawg prices. :evillaugh

Peugeot 205 GTI, VW Golf GTI, all these kind of cars, of the eighties. Fast and quite cheap now. But you'll pay a lot in insurance !!
