Enough to buy a decent enough 9000 (sadly not an aero which would be my fuel economy excuse), a very good Alfa155 (much better on economy, and dirt cheap to buy as people don't know the difference between the cambelt 16v models and the early 8v models, and Alfas improvements in rust prevention from the 80's on), or a fair condition Honda Prelude VTEC (economy round town off cam (still drivable thanks to two cam profiles) and 185BHP if you keep it in the VTEC zone (5250-7500 revs) when you want to play, in a lighter smaller car). Would prefer the 9k if I could get an Aero, but don't think I would be getting much benefit from a lower spec model, because an FPT/Carlsson/CSE would be just as thirsty and an LPT would be a bit flat, although I did find the LPT a little more suited to my shape than a C900, and so more comfortable, though I hate to say it. How big are you Carl :-)) I'm 6'1" and have been between 13.5 and 18 stone while I've had C900s and never had a problem. The only 9000 I drove just felt too big for me, but I love the 900, just want one with more go now. I'd like one of the last Carlsson models ideally, then tweak it sensibly. Cheers Mike PS Anyone want a Redm G-reg (1989) 900S 16V? 12 months MOT, 2 months Tax. All OK apart from a small dent on front wing, and the fact it jumps out of reverse and third when it feels like it? Everything else works fine! What's it worth ? £300 ish?
