I will be purchasing a vr6 fairly soon i think, wether insure or drive it before summer im not sure. But i do want one, make it up to be a nice show car. lol. SHINY.

Guess the proof will be when the insurance certificate lands on my door step.

Going into the navy in december so will be selling the mk3  :cry: and ploughing all the money into the mk2 (full respray / re trim) and buying a new celica or mk5 gti to have as a daily  :evil:

First dibs on the angel eyes when you sell :)

How are you going to afford a MK5 GTI then? If you can't afford a VR6? (to insure that is lol!)

found out i could insure a vr6 for £1357.80 to be exact :grin: but i really have a hankering ( :wink: ) for a celica  :evil:

if i was to get a mk5 gti then limited mileage policy looks the best way

That ain't too bad for a VR6, considering I'm paying £1400 on a 1.8 GL lol!

I'd love a Celica too...you're not the only one.

Why even bother with a VR6? Its just heavier and not much power gain over a 16v GTi 2L.

Your better off going with Admiral and getting a 16v.
