Guy from work bought one and rocked up in it on Monday looks ok but for 44k :shock: .....

Was just reading the first page is this the same as the Toyota 86 or whatever it is?....The guy mentioned above went the veloster as he was given an 18 month wait for the Toyota that he was originally going to buy....

Oh and congrats Joe :kuda:

86 & BRZ seems to have all the hype at the moment and some decent reviews, sheesh 18 month wait; some may regret that purchase/wait, usually something else comes into the market during that time period that will be on par or surpass it in terms of price/performance.

MX5 GT track day/weekend warrior?

If you happy to go french, not minding the typical french build quality; the current clio RS200 performs pretty well, alot better then I expected. Took that for a bit of a thrash, nice lift over steer considering it's FWD, the sales guy wasn't expecting it. :lol:

Nothing wrong with Hyundai's these days. Third most reliable brand in the world behind Porsche and Toyota apparently ;)
