What car is best?
Discussion
So I'm after a car which I can pick up for cheap, thinking cat c or d write off I want to performance tune, bit of a sleeper but something that would look good being lowered with big rims. Just a bit tatty on the outside. A small hatchback, something around 1.8-2.0 mark. I was wondering which car you guys would sudgest and what mods to do, I haven't got a massive budget but over time I don't mind spending the wonga.
Cheers

I want to pick the car up under the £500 mark so I was thing cat c or d for the car, and then with a budget of around 3-4K to do all mods over a period of time.
It might just be me always airing on the side of caution but I'm not sure how must trust I'd be willing to put into a cat c/d 'performance' car. Things only need to go wonky once...Assuming you aren't still at school and currently on holidays then if you want to tune up a stbox as a bit of a sleeper then the easiest to make faster for cheap will be:
- Turbo charged engine
- Engine you can easily add turbo supercharger to

No well out of school haha, but yer that's what I was thinking but un sure which car is best to do this with. It seems that not all turbo engines are easy to swap about and add power. What do you sudgest is best? - Turbo charged engine
- Engine you can easily add turbo supercharger to
