    Ive been thinking of what car to use for track days, most of all parts must be easy to get hold of.

    Here is my short list so far:

    civic vti
    civic crx
    alfa 155
    mazda mx5
    nissan silvia s12 or s13
    almera gti
    sunny gti
    106 rallye
    205 gti
    r5 gt turbo
    rover brm
    rover 220 turbo 2dr
    rover 420 gsi turbo
    suzuki cappuncino
    celica gt4 st 185
    mk1 mr2

    Any thoughts on these?

    205 gti 1.9 of course, driven my mates the only thing that has been done is its lowered, k&n awsome piece of kit and parts are cheap and easy to get hold of


    i really like the rover 220 turbos i mean you can pick one up around £800-£1000 and 200bhp, but to be honest they cost a little bit to get handling to any sort of level for a track and also the brakes need upgrading straight away not a good track toy

    so 205gti 8)
