I get more than that out of the RX7 :shock:

I went to Tamworth and back yesterday (400 miles) and got 33 mpg. I wasn't driving particularly economically either, so not bad I think.

Certainly another ZXI / GLX / V6 BA323, and hopefully a Lantis at that.

I've been considering a Lantis for early next year the only problem is I'd have to start sourcing one now because finding a lantis in good nick is rare as rocking horse do-do ;)

My next car will be a Supra or an RX7 FD. Unless something unrepairable happens to my car before I'm old enough to get insured on one of those, then I'll get another BA :lol:

aye i got an mx5

really starting to want a mk3.5 in black with the foldable hardtop just for praticality (i mean laziness) and ease of use park anywhere, out driving it not tinkering with it

and a set of 17" rota torques in bronze with the dealer fit eibachs would complete it


i'd like a tvr 350i (wedge) or a tvr s series - s2 / s3 / v8s but they are all getting so old now for parts

Having just done some rather interesting insurance quotes, my next car could well be something other than what I had planned (ZXi)....

Then again I simply cannot make my mind up over power or fuel economy!! Either way a decent car and insurance is going to cost me a lot... so why the hell settle for something boring and tractor powered? Must be a solution to this.... a poll nearer the time maybe.
