Project Car Suggestions

[Kezzieboy]

Yup, it's another 'what car' thread, however this one is a little more interesting IMO!

I'm on a work placement this year, so am actually being paid for the first time in 3 years, and they're putting me up in a flat, with bills included, so I'll have a little disposable income. I also have a garage, and off-road parking.

All of these things tell me it's time for car number 2. The 306 is still the perfect daily beater, so it might get an intercooler and limited torque map, but other than that it'll stay as it is. In the mean time, I want something as a fun weekend project.


So, criteria are as follows:
- 20+ years old for super cheap classic insurance, and to help the below points.
- Either:
~ Relatively fast. Preferably faster than the S2000 a friend of mine just bought.
~ Badass, pimp wagon cruiser.
- Easy/Cheap to work on. I need to be able to fix it with my limited budget and knowledge.
- Preferably less than £1500, certainly less than £2000.
- Unusual
- Fun
- Preferable RWD


Stuff I've looked at, for inspiration:
- Saab 900 Turbo
- Mazda MX-5 (obviously)
- Mazda MX-3 V6
- E28 5 series
- Scirocco
- 205 GTi/Dturbo
- 309 GTi
- Suzuki Cappuccino
- 7 series BMW (V12, yes please!)
- Mk1 MR2
- MG F/TF
- Peugeot 505 (prices have jumped up in the last couple years though )


So, hit me!
