    Check for the steering rack creaking at low speeds (coming to a stop at the traffic lights for instance).

    And also notchiness going into 2nd gear - some cars were recalled for this fault, and the synchro replaced.

    Good luck. Enjoy. Smile as you hit 6000rpm

    Piss all over standard CTR's, yeah. But to be fair, for not much more money than the cost of a 2.0 and parts to actually make it very quick, you could actually just buy an '02 CTR and super/turbocharge it

    I drive to work in the CTR, wearing a suit. I'm not a rep. You tend to find people who drive around in 15 grands worth or more of a car, earn a reasonably decent salary and are usually in jobs that require them to dress smartly... not like truck/van drivers
