Ah sorry I didn't realise I was wrong

Totally against that verdict though Duke!

Interslice · 20-05-2015 9:12pm

All rounder is a funny way to compare them. I would imagine the honda returns more unbroken eggs from the shops than the nissan!

hi_im_fil · 20-05-2015 10:00pm

Interslice has it right. The s14 has wafts of turbo power but is just too hard for daily driving. The s2000 handles better and is more comfortable but lacks storage space. Each have their own good attributes but neither is really a good daily :P

Special Circumstances · 20-05-2015 10:21pm

I recognise that the s2k is a serious machine with serious engineering but I really really like the styling of the s14a.

Nissan as a desktop wallpaper for me, never driven either so couldn't say which one I'd rather have for the twisty stuff.

Not the cheapest collection to insure id imagine

Did you bring the s2k in from England? The vrt is mad on them. I checked when I brought my z over

Fill, you really have to stop buying my bucket list.

hi_im_fil · 21-05-2015 7:21am

Buy all the cars when you can! You might not get the chance later on in life!

Bar new sills and floor pans there hasn't been much in the way of activity on this, less so on the 19 too, so twas nice to get few hours today to put down the first layer of primer. Hopefully by next week the paint can go on. This car has come such a long way since buying it, this is one I am really proud of

Pretty reasonable tbh! I didn't bring the s2000 in myself, its been in Ireland since 2006.

Had mx down yesterday to do some work on the car. Excellent job, well priced. Can't recommend James enough.

What was it that you got done to the lower grille not so long back? Looks nicer than other fr's I've seen.

Lower bumper, behind the number plate and the chrome surround of the grill. Just wanted to see what it was like tbh. Worked out alright.

Lovely FR that glad you learned how to park it..

Very well kept, fair play. Have the wheels been refurbed? They look as good as new!

morritty · 23-05-2015 4:54pm

Freshly washed, and just got its first polishing.

UnknownSpecies · 23-05-2015 5:01pm

The mothers Ibiza looking well with the roof box on.

I have the same MV2s and am considering a refurb at some stage too. Nice to see a good job before pulling the trigger myself.

Cant believe Ive been driving this for the last year. Put up just under 19K miles on it in that time and the only trouble its gave was deciding one day it didnt like its power steering.

Gave it a quick wash this evening, scrubs up well for 19 years old and 162K miles

166man · 23-05-2015 9:52pm

Here's to another 19 years and 162k miles...!

Halfway through a full machine Polish by Ded Zebra, Quad and myself. It's coming up an absolute treat. The Germans really know how to do quality paint.

And a spin down the east coast after just because nice day...!

This car is really growing on me.

No Colm I cancelled it as when I seen it in the flesh it done nothing for me plus the colour looked drab in the flesh. The Passat is looking for a new home now as I have another motor coming next week!!
