Suzuki cappuccino:

700cc petrol turbo RWD 2 wheel drive :)

but I'm bias because it was my first car!

never heard of them but that's one fucking cool first car

guy i used to know's mrs had one of them cappuccino, considering you bash mx5s all the time.... they are well well well WELL girlier

4G Civic Vtec should get a mention too actually. I've not drove one, but my GL (1.4 16v) isnt 'slow' so they must shift a little, the CRXs do anyway

I don't like big car's. They don't fit in small parking spaces and they aren't cool for a girl in her mid twenties.

So lets see some good pocket rockets.

Here are 3 of my faves....

Renault 5 Turbo

Never see any around anymore, probably because the engines blew up a lot and they were lethal.

Boxy beyond belief, like a lot of french cars, they look better (and cooler) with age.

A white one of these for sale at a small garage around my way at the moment.

'nuff said

Its hardly a 'pocket rocket' though is it? its more of an RPG in the rocket scale

^Okay slightly less pocket but they were getting bigger as the thread went on

WTF

Thats a bit more 'pocket rocket' than the 6r4, but still too much

Another from me

its only a foot longer wheelbase than the golf

Does this count????

haha - to think that Maxi engined heap of communism was a rival to the MK1 Golf GTi..

Dublass - Renault 5 turbo? With fwd? My cousin pointed out a real one by his house the other day,a totally original rear-engined MK1 turbo.

i never said it wasn't girly, besides i don't think mx5's are girly, i think they are gay. baring in mind i have never seen one of these before my statemant might of been very different if it had been standard, But in a time when most kids have 1.1 saxo's as a first car i do think that a turbo rwd car with the above mods is a cool as hell first car

Lancia Y10 Turbo

Just thought of another one. Mazda 323 Turbo 4x4.

Nissan Pulsar GTiR..

2.0 Turbo, 220bhp standard, 4x4....

Edited 2 July, 201016 yr by smithy_6n

106 GTi. Really is a fun car to be in.

I'm going to go for the Toyota starlet aswell, since I have just brought one.

It's not a glanza tho it is the gt turbo which is better looking imo and older so more retro.

Smithy I thought the glanza weighed 920kg compared with the ep82 which is 850kg, or was your one the light weight one with manuel windows etc.

O yeh and those pulser's are fucking nuts I will get one some day, the guy I brought the starlet off had just brought a pulser because he was bord of a intergra turbo

Sorry yeah 920kg, 133bhp..

Still a decent power to weight though and the GT even more so!

i hate startlet/glanza

would rather eat my toe nails.

205 is cool tho

r5 turbo for me

tempted to buy one a few years back,but couldnt find an original un-fucked about with one for the right monies

i hate startlet/glanza

would rather eat my toe nails.

205 is cool tho

I used to think that too (g40's arch enemy!), but they really are good cars. soooo much more tuning potential than a g40, and alot more reliable.

Cant believe no one has said the fiesta RST tbh! Bloody quick cars when played with a lil bit

Nissan micra ss also, but they are super rare!

Yeah, gotta hate the fact that the gear and pedal boxes actually last :p

Some good cars, I actually own 3 of the above mentioned cars
