hi guys I'm really stuck on which car to get next i sold my Glanza on Thursday and ever since then Iv been having sleepless nights because Iv just been going on the Internet looking at cars to get but can't make my mind up.
My budget is about 4k for the right car.wouldn't mind a ep82 though but will only spend about 3k for a well modified one or even another Glanza for 3.5k because I just love the starlets and regretted selling them(Iv had 3 lol)

Here are a list of cars that Iv been looking at

Subaru impreza wrx Sti
Nissan pulsar
Honda civic type r ep3 or ek9
Honda civic 1.6 Vti

so guys just let me know your experiences with these cars I don't do many miles about 30 miles a week but I want something fairly reliable that I won't have to keep spending money on.thanks in advance guys and all input will be repd :)

If ya go Subaru make shore it's a good one with mild mods. Nissan pulsars are well cool but rot boxes and only seem fast with a gt 30 on it and a well speced engine I.e forged. Hondas are cool IMO I'd rather have a good example ek9 over the ep3 unless it's a White jdm spec one. Ya just need to make sure any of them have a good back ground as there all cars made for thrashing ha and defo the v tec ones but a better engine out of the list

saw some nice ek9s on pistonheads but way over my budget.and Iv read that pulsars give lots of trouble.Iv always wanted a scooby but don't want to end up buying a pile of crap because I don't know much about them might just stick with starlets,everytime I sell one I always end up getting another.Iv had e ep3 type r but ended up getting rid of it and bought a Glanza then sold the Glanza and ended up buying another Glanza lol.any one know much about BMW 330d? Oh and does anyone know this car in the link below?

I like the civics and would say if you could find a good type R wedge shape for the right price they are very reliable and newer than the teg type R, But it seems you got the boost bug so I would say try finding a few local and go look at and sit in etc see which you like before deciding..... I still think youll end up in a starlet or V.

Ive got a 'corolla' levin up for sale atm just waiting on approval.

I dont like pulsars at all so i wouldnt go for that...

Subarus are so so so common and such a typical choice but would beat all the cars in stock form on that list. I wouldnt buy a subaru..

I owned an EK9 and loved all the 2 and half years of owning it but its not for everyone... These are expensive for what they are though.

VTI is bottom of that pack and in a totally different class..
 
I used to have a civic vti-s didn't keep it long soon get bored of the vtec stick with something with boost IMO I've had larger cars a gt four st205 nice car but still not as much fun as the smaller car my opinion another glanza/starlet

I like the 172/182 clios but I'd rather get a gt turbo or Glanza.seen a few forged glanzas that I like but they are too far away.Iv seen a few subaru's just want to know are they reliable if looked after but obviously I'll drive it hard every now and again.also guys I was reading on a Subaru forum that the Sti type r version can only be ran on 100 Ron fuel can someone give me a bit more info on that.And does anyone know the car in the link I posted

I'd love a ek9 type r but its going to be really hard with my budget I don't want one with really high miles max 80 k miles.if I bought a car from ireland will I have to register it in the uk?
