Sorry everyone!
I should have made myself a lot clearer!! :ashamed:
I was responding to an earlier thread about the Skoda Octavia VRS, and it got me thinking, if I really could not have a Golf (God forbid), what would I drive? I'm really thinking about what us mere mortals can afford, so I've re-set the parameters:
Under 45,000 retail if new or current shape
No Porsche
No Lambo's
My top two would be as follows:
1988 Audi Quattro
Mk 1 Seat Leon Cupra R 225
:stupid:

I had one of these and it looks awesome. Didnt do corners though, it was more like trying to tack a yacht
Havent got any electronic pics of mine

Mine was the 2.8V6. It was slow, handled like a barge, cost me loads in maintenance and repairs, but i loved it :laugh:
The best thing is, i only bought it to spite my missus, who when i mentioned id like to buy it, she told me, i wasnt allowed. That night i had a lovely audi coupe.
I see her point, having a 2 door coupe with a 1 year old child isnt ideal, but i proved my manhood and thats what counts

Audi S3 8L in Ming Blue, with silver leather and OEM 18" RS4s. :happy2: FTW

Ooh that sounds nice! S3's are getting down to what was Ed30 money now as well. Mmmmmm food for thought!

Brilliant car, and so rare, but I always preferred the standard quattro to look at

What do you think is sexy then Andrew?

MK5GTian - A friend of mine had one, identical to the one in the picture and i had the pleasure of a shotgun ride.
The sound was addictive and for saying they're 20 odd years old now i was really suprised with how quick it was and how it handled :driver:

Ha ha! Nice one Andrew! Good point! :signLOL:

1988 Audi Quattro
Why the 88 version?
I found the 10 valve so laggy and borring to drive were the 89-90 20V was move fun and had little lag.

na thats too mumsy.
sexy is something which is meant to get the heart pumping and blood flowing to your manhood, bringing out the darkest beast in you.

The problem i have with this is that by their very nature VAG cars are not sexy. VW do not and have not ever made a 'sexy' car, they are functional and are of good design but they lack that je ne said quoin that makes a car sexy. Same goes for audi with exception to the Audi R8.

Yep, my sentiments exactly. I don't even think the R8 could be considered sexy - it's still a clinical tool of a car.

Sexy? :innocent:

Sepang Blue TT-RS for me
-
Nice one Mike, but I reckon the Mark 1 Cupra R is the sexiest, especially from behind.
Oooer, Mrs.

Unfortunately not through my eyes mike. Dont get me wrong, I absolutely love my Edition 30 and think it looks the balls, and your leon is wonderful... but sexy they are not.
A ferrari 458.... now that is a sexy car. :love:
-
Alright, should have read best non-VW VAG!!
I take your point! I personally find the Leon Cupra R Mark 1 very sexy from behind :ashamed:
But I too am struggling to find any other sexy examples! I do find the 80's Quattro stunning to look at, but is it sexy in the same way as a Miura or a 250 GTO, or a 288 GTO (gulp)? Okay, probably not.
:stupid:

If only they made it...
