Car = 3k
Mods = 10k (including labour)

Total = £13k FWD car with 300bhp and is useless in anything but dry weather

or

http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/840533.htm

Will piss over a 300bhp golf in every area (and any other 300bhp hatchback) and you will have change for a holiday!

ah yes you're one trick solution to everything

so tell me - why did you mod your CTR???

I lightly modded my ctr, i didnt spend in excess of £10k on a fwd hatchback as its just stupid! Anyone that does it has more money than sense!  I sold it because it was a nippy hatchback and was pointless to mod it further.
I bought

exhaust - £550
ECU - £800
Induction - £380

I sold them at the exact price i paid when i sold the car, as i want something that is faster standard and a better car! I dont personally have the need for 300bhp+ or i would buy an evo or M3 so the R32 fits me perfectly with 4wd and 250bhp.

what if the person likes the look of the golf and not something like a subaru or evo, and 10k is not necessarily the end figure, some mods wont be done in favour of others etc.

You could buy and turbo an  MK4 R32 for close to the money he will spend!
