Cheap and chuckable?

[Boforus]

Hi guys, was looking at maybe getting a wee project car that is as the titles suggests. Something like a Toyota Starlet or an old clio, just for something cheap to play with, suggestions?

Ford Puma, if you can find one in decent fettle.

[Sonofabeesting]

306 GTi6 or a Rallye (although they are more expensive to buy)

[JB8]

106GTI or Saxo VTS, very chuckable and parts are cheap

As usual, right answer to the question.

Ford Puma? Depends if you can find one with crusty bits!

MR2?

[aka_kerrly]

Puma 1.7 is a a good shout , what about mk2 Golf GTI

Starlet's handle like crap. Get a MR2 roadster

I too would say MX-5 or maybe a 172/182, but an MG ZR VVC would be good for some cheap thrills - although finding a decent one for the right price can be a bit hard.

Is an MR2 roadster not a far better tool than an Mx5?
