we've thought about importing one of these is the XR6 any good ? we really wanted the V8 though

theres no option for 1.5 ? ?

MK1 Cortina, 1500cc, 145 BHP, 750 KG, quicker than an Elise on track . . . . .

10 MPG isn't so good though and the brakes and tyres only last 3 hours!

Zefarelly IMHO while the XR6 is a great car, performance and handling wise, but I would go for the XR6 Turbo over the XR8 and XR6. I know several people with them and these cars are weapons. The XR6T is 100kg lighter and faster and more fuel effic and handles better and has very smooth power delivery - its almost like youre not driving a turbo.

Legally I still own this. Typically like most American cars its badly built but the drive train is a Mitsubishi 3000 V6 so it goes well (or it used to).

1.1 - she is a beast off the mark, but once you reach the 100 mark it feels like it may well explode

a very average 1.6 petrol soon to be jacked in for a 1.9 diesel.

Scratch that. It's now a 2.0 turbo diesel.

whoops school boy error :lolol:

if its 2.0 tick 2.0 to 3.0


Bit late now, already ticked the other box cos a 2 litre is almost always less than 2000cc


Also, do they really make a Micra 'SPORT' ??? ??? ??? ??? I'm a little confused as to how 'Nissan Micra' and 'Sport' can ever be used in the same sentance! :ohmy:

there should be a law against that

the law should also include 'jpanese' and 'styling' as well as 'BMW' and 'courteous driver' and 'American' and 'good taste, handling and economic'

should get a blast in a new Focus ST this weekend . . . supposed to be a really good little runaround, even though its front wheel drive
