Ideas on fun fast J estate

[shadowdashie]

So i am on a budget but wanting another J toy and fancy a wagon this time open to ideas or inspiration on a budget of around £800

Ideally would be 5 x114.3 as have some nice wheels for it

Just fancy something fun and needs to have mot any ideas ?

Subaru Forester.

Same family but the Leagcy.



I had the 2.5 estate as my last UK car and badly wanted to bring it with me but sadly, Singapore had other ideas.

Quick, comfortable and look good with nice wheels, etc.

No idea how they fit with your budget though.

Yeah the legacys are ok I am a fan of the earlier 90s ones
And that legnum is amazing always wanted on tho not finding one in my budget always fetched good money them

I just bought one of these, apart from having no tax its been a peach. MPG is poor but I couldn't care.

Equipment is amazing and at 5'11" I can sleep in the boot. The boot floor raises to be completely flat with the rear deck so its well comfy.

Plus the 5 speed with E-shift is pretty derp for an auto.

EDIT: the IS300 with the tasty 2JZ might be a wee bit pricey however the IS200 with the manual box will probs be available in that region.

A great car, I had one a while back.

Not blistering performance on this Civic but it's quick enough. Stretching your budget but he may haggle. Don't know if it'd take your wheels?

Saab 9-2X

Impreza with Saab grill !

How about a Nissan Stagea,

Boxy but has a very tunable r33 or r34 skyline engine as a power plant and is quite a rarity

[tomglt]

Didn't realise the budget was that low maybe a non turbo one at that price....

Nice shout but USA only.

I know it's not in budget but other than the 9-2x above this is the wagon I want



Prince/Nissan Gloria, like a GTO but better because wagon and J!

[stefan]

Always liked the Saab 92x maybe one day I will import the panels to make one in the uk

[tsoob]

Surely you could fit 5 stud hubs off some other Lancer...

[qwerty]

Not 5x114.3 but I'm fairly sure you'll get an Impreza Turbo for £800. It'll be far from a minter but it will be fun and fast.......until it explodes.

Never seen one of those before, that looks really nice though!

I was just about to suggest one of those. Sure they are available as a bigger 4 cylinder and a V6 too

[gazz81]

You may find a grotty vr4 for that money!
