Despite buying my realistic dream car just two weeks ago;

today I have been musing over this:

...or something much like it.
I loved mine to bits!

Not obsessing about cars at the moment...would be quite happy with a cheap, economic run around and a bigger bike for play times

S1 Escort RS Turbo.

I need to buy one. Like yesterday.
I have the money for one burning a hole in my mattress.

I'd post a pic if my blasted internet would work properly. frown
Don't worry.

When you finally find one.

Someone else will probably nab it first tongue out
No you won't. wink
Not me hehe

Someone else might though..

Very sought after cars.

Today i've been mostly obsessing about my own car.

Yesterday was the same.
The day before that, Smart Roadsters.
The day before that Fiesta's or other cheap hatches.
Whenever it's sunny i obsess over MX-5's/MR2's.

PurelyRetro: Is that your car?
Just another one of my Ford spots from Lydden, although I do have a soft spot for these. cloud9

This is a daily problem for me, currently I am a poor student, very soon to be joining the world of work and I have a small amount of cash in the bank.

So my daily obsessing changes depending on if I'm thinking of buying cash.

OR Buy on finance using the cash as a deposit/to get a smaller loan so upto about £6/7k

OR More finance - £10k

OR Even obsess about what company car i'd choose if got one, from realistic to the not realistic.

On any given day I can obsess over a 123d coupe, 3series coupe, Audi A3, VW Scirocco 2.0 GT, VW Golf GTI (Mk5)and spend the rest of the day trawling through pistonheads classifieds wandering through different budgets.

e46 convertible for £8k?! e46 330d, Audi S3, Alfa GT Coupe (really want one but reliability scares me)Golf Gti Mk 5 for £10-12k though(Really want one so gets mentioned twice) VX220 Turbo, 350z.

The joys of being a pistonhead with desires to sate and not enough money to sate them.

For the past month its been a TVR S3 2.9, reading all i can get my grubby mits on.! Youtube & S3 v6 go very well together!
All i have to do know is sell the JZR and find a minter, An old TVR may not be the defenition of practical but its got four wheels so its a large step in the tight direction! :-)

3 things on my mind at the moment

1 - Getting a Fiat 100hp sorted for the missus, she wants a white one and they are not easy to find.(purely so i can borrow it)

2 - How to convince my dad that buying a 1960's Mustang is a really good idea, and actually get him to part with some readies (purely so i can borrow it)

3 - How i can come up with the spoons to buy a new GT3 Porker.


Its a hard life.rolleyes
