It's a MK3 not a squareback, not a coupe...
I couldn't help myself, especially when the CTR is on it's way...
FINALLY found someone selling a car on ebay within 20 miles of me (this was actually 3 miles away!!)
needs a porka dancing banana!

Paint work is very good! and it IS that red. I think that most tornado pink cars will shine up a healthy red with a bit of paint restorer / t-cut / polish.
I won't reveal the price incase I decide to sell it on sometime!
But still it's pretty cool and matches the G40. I'll have to take some pics of them both together.
Owning 3 cars is a bit much, I know some of you have 5+ !! but the Type-R is going shortly. I'll just be down to the G40. I need a reliable car for work so I've got this as a backup if anything goes wrong on the G40. I think it makes sense, otherwise could end up costing a lot more to get the g40 fixed quickly, or in hire car charges.
I was supprised by how nippy it is being less than half the power of the g40 and almost a quarter of the CTR!
My g/f thinks it's a grandads car... she hasn't said but I can tell.
I guess g40'ing it has been done to death. I'll have to do a bit of searching to see what engines will actually fit in a mk3 without too much effort.
