Hi guys/girls! I currently own an EP3 CTR and am looking into possibly getting a mk1 3 MPS. I miss having turbo power, even though the CTR can be a riot. I was wondering if anyone nearish to Farnborough would be willing to let me have a look round their mk1 MPS? I just want to have a closer look without having a salesman breathing down my neck. I'd be very happy to through a 5er someone's way if they'd take me out in a standard (if possible) car so I can see what they're like? Obviously not expecting to drive myself. I'm really interested in getting one, I just don't want to make the same mistake as I did with the Civic by buying a car and later regretting it. If anyone could help me out I'd be very, very grateful! Thanks! Eliot.

Thanks for the offer, after seeing Wilso's I've pretty much made my mind up it's what I'm getting. Maybe once I've got it we could sort out a mini meet or something. Just trying to find a good example. They all seem so overpriced :( SpamFace wrote: How'd I miss this, I do appologise. Hello and to :MPSOC: , No problem... But what of??? My Civic? Cheers guys!

I meant the 3 if/when you get one, but sure, why not, still nice cars.
