What Car Should I Buy?

I'd sell you my Volvo for £3,000, which is less than I spent on the engine rebuild by quite a long way.

The car has 161K on it, but the important bits (engine/turbo/tyres/clutch/brakes/suspension) all have less than 10K.

The engine would be classed as "built", and in the configuration that it is currently in will provide 400 horsepower with a bigger turbo/injectors/intercooler.

It's currently running around 100 below that, depending om ambient conditions.

As you are well aware, before the engine rebuild it would do 146 mph with three bikes, you and one other person in it.

It costs (based on current petrol prices) around £0.25 per mile for petrol, and my insurance (fully comprehensive including business use) was £406 this year, including the declared modifications.

Do you actually want to sell your car? My family might not talk to me if I become a 'Volvo driver'. I don't think there's the same stigma attached over here. :)
