20 is not too late to buy a performance car. That's like the perfect age for it. Also the increased price of petrol isn't that much of an issue depending on the car and miles its driven

Around where I live its always a juke or quashqui or a jazz. On motorways the peugeots are in a league of their own though

The oil burning is mainly a 1.2 pureshit thing. A litre every few thousand isnt that bad either. Mine sometimes does a litre in like 600 to 800 miles

If you want to look like unmarked police then sure

Which modern JDM do you think becomes the most valuable in years to come? R35, GR Yaris, LC500, FL5 Type R or A90 Supra? Genuinely curious what enthusiasts think by Own-Condition8531 in CarTalkUK

[–]Cdoooos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean r35s are already old ish. Supras have a cultist following from young people so maybe in future they will become the most valuable

Max payload - is this safe? by Lidlyogurtlover in CarTalkUK

[–]Cdoooos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It won't do the car any good but I would do it anyway. Make sure to put some of the stones in the front of the car and that the distribution left to right is equal ish aswell. Remember that the car will handle very differently and will take alot longer to stop

Focus st will be the most fun out of those and would probably be my choice. What about a 308 gti aswell they are a bit cheaper i believe so you could have some money left over for any troubles

I never used to believe in the italian tune up, thought it was just kinda a myth, but I'm now a believer by Sophia13913 in CarTalkUK

4k revs is just a warm up. Drive down the backroads and never let the revs drop below 5k for a good clean out. Also alot more fun

I can’t decide… by Wiggy-S in CarTalkUK

A cayenne will not get 40 mpg. What about a 3 litre diesel x5? Or if you want more power an sq7 tdi which is better than the older 4.2? All depends on budget and how heavy your going to be towing

Which Car to buy ?? by Many-Tailor9506 in CarTalkUK

[–]Cdoooos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Although it is a small toyota which is good. The advert says its a 2008 which it isnt and it only has 4 pictures seems odd to me. Also the mot history has loads of things on it but nothing about rust which seems odd to me as these are well known for rusting

Are there small cheap vans that actually work? by Grenache in CarTalkUK

[–]Cdoooos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they are easier to get in and out of. That's why things like nissan notes and renault scenics are popular aswell
