Found a 'Plus' within my (revised) budget which turned out to be a 20vt[6] so thats what actually started this thread. Just doing some more research ....... I know I can't get a Plus for that money, maybe next year !!!

From a point of view of a Coupe dummy... all these models look the same to me exterior wise I suppose it's what inside that counts? Good luck with your search, though. Hope you will find the perfect one

Something to bear in mind is this..... if you buy a 20vt6 and put side skirts on it, you have modified your car. Therefore you need to declare this.

I know I can't get a Plus for that money, maybe next year !!! Not too difficult to turn a 6 speeder into Plus spec, just look at mine below !!!! Only thing I am missing is the Recaros, which I can live without.

wella ctually the plus recaro's aint tartish its the le that has the horrible seats
Matter of taste, the LE seats look fantastic in the flesh and suit the Black and Vinci and Red so well! People just seem them and get scared by em, actually see one in the flesh and its different.

Jayzee, I have posted a wanted on the forum but basically - having spent more time on here and seeing a few more coupes - I'm after a 20vt/20vt[6]/Plus. Def need leather (black) and aircon, Porto blue or yellow Originally had a budget of £3000ish but have found a few more pennies so just looking for the perfect car! I'm very fussy though so may be some time before I find one, though I think I could navigate the forums etc in my sleep now! I know how you feel Something you will seriously fall for will eventually turn up

Something you will seriously fall for will eventually turn up Happened to me with both the coops I've had. Neither was what I was actually looking for but they fitted the bill for me and haven't regretted either (/me runs off to hug a big tree). Wanted a turbo but bought an n/a with a really good history which still scared/exhilarated me to drive. I only owned a mk3 1.4 Golf at this time and just thought that will do for starters (until I learn to drive something with a modicum of poke) and it was a great car. Wanted a low mileage plus and bought a high mileage 20VT(6) (with superb history) go figure! Helped that the 6 had the six speed box, plus alloys and a start button which I craved and thought "forget about the body kit and strut brace" (although I now have the latter). It will just feel right and the more lemons that you look at the more you'll know it's right when you find the right one. The more lemons looked at the better IMHO.
Up yours Photobucket.

that is the a lovely colour combo, i dont like ink black and i dont like tan leather but that just works so well. as for all these comments about LE seats being tarty etc well your wrong end of story. But if we were all the same this world would be a very boring place to live. Paul R

I agree, you need to see the lemons so you know when you find the right one
