Well.......I'm too much of an oaf, my lad is after a hot hatch preferably as near to entering as possible.

There is a saxo on eBay but that's in Norfolk which is a massive trek but I think is sold so thought I would ask fellow ph chums.

He's got about 3 grand for the car, the rest is for set up and grid fees

We've got a trailer so no need to be road legal...

Thanks Mark, much appreciated and close too. But I think the engine on the 182 is too large, the class he's aiming to be in is 1600 and under I think....

Sounds just the job. If you could let me know some details I'll pass them on thumbup
Oh and he's on about £2750....I was upping his budget unknowingly as he needs a bit off a buffer and fair play to him wants to pay for it all himself. (I'm transportation!)

Hi Mark. As I thought the 182 would put him in class A which isn't where he wants to be to start with but many thanks, appreciated.

Rallycross...I've sent a PM to you.

Hello Bryan. Many thanks but my lad is soon to be the new custodian of Rallycross's Saxo. 👍

Update as it's always nice to follow up. Here he is in said trackcar flat out on camp corner at Castle Combe today. Thanks to Craig who we bought it from. It's a cracker.
