Default My car collection...

1998 UK ITR
1987 E30 M3
2004 Caterham 7

3 of the best affordable drivers cars ever made. One more so than the others...
The Teg and M3 are up fpr sale so this could be my last Honda post ever. Got my race license yesterday so thats what the caterham is for although its still road legal. It just like driving a big kart.

I'm sure it's the perspective, but that M3 looks *huge* compared the R and the Seven

I've always wanted a E30 M3 and a Caterham/Lotus 7/Super 7.

Good god, you got a great collection. Hope you'll find something even better to replace the M3 and the R. Good luck.

The ITR I have owned for about 3 years and is now up for sale as our relationship is now coming to an end. Shes like your girlfriend that you still love but no longer want to be with! Too 'boy racer' in the UK now that lexus lights etc are infecting the ITR population...
The M3 I need to sell as I just took delivery of the Caterham (550miles and counting!) and need a tow car and trailer. The M3 is a sensational drivers car with all the tactility and fun of an ITR but with much better steeering and of course RWD. Highly recommended.
The Caterham is a 1.6L with 'only' 120bhp. this in a car that weighs less than 600kgs though means its pretty nippy.. It is an Academy car which is run by Caterham whereby you buy the car, 2 sprints, 2 hillclimbs, and 4 circuit races for one set price. At the end of the season you keep the car which can be cheaply upgraded (more power, better tyres) to keep racing at a higher level or just sell it. Its a pretty good deal and a great way into club racing. Driving on the roads in this country is no longer fun (unless you head out somewhere very remote) which is a travesty when you see some of our amazing roads. Therefore racing is the answer and it has been calling me for a while..

Man I cant believe you havent sold the R yet!!!!!

Will agree with the ghey lights and big wheels that seem to be appearing on loads of Rs over hear. Done the wheel thing, got bored of no handling so running stockies again, wont make that mistake again, only had the wheels 2 months before I got rid of them. Oh and lets not forget the big cheese grater spoilers!!!!!

Good luck with the sale of the cars.


Ian
