So you have a 1.3 lancer ?
Had a scooby for a few years I treated myself to after I qualified. Jaysus it was like a mortgage to own. Tyres & petrol and tax and insurance.
Bought a pajero then. Pan into the fire

E46 M3 here, ‘‘tis a beast and one of the all time greats IMO. Now, I’m sure golf R’s will beat her hands down in acceleration but it’s still a very exciting car to drive. |

I had one, I've an RS6 now but I will admit the E46 M3 is more exciting and the back end is definitely busier, you will load the underpants with the M3, I loved the frequent frights it gave me |

I had a 535 mspec E34 in my younger days. That car definitely put manners on me. But it was great fun. ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

The mi16 is bastard fast and only getting faster, its getting a cage and more weight reduction over winter all going well.
The 505 is getting an Sri turbo conversion with ldv gear box. Should be plenty of fun then.
The two TDs are proper smoke machines ???? |

I'm driving a Toyota 4 runner jeep in alaska for an oil company. It has engine block heating and oil sump battery and transmission heaters too. The temperature can fall to 60 below at times. I basically plug the jeep into the mains power when parked up
