    Just seeing if hgts are any good?punto that is, and are they tunable?
    i had a gt for a while and dont fancy another,
    Also considering:

    Civic vti
    pug 106 gti
    saxo vts
    R 5gt

    What are your views/experience with these cars or do you have any other ideas for around 3 grand mark?

    no i made a very bad mistake in thinking a HGT was a good move and it wasnt in any event.

    I hated it with a passion yet i love the MK1.

    You you be intrested in a swap with a Fiat Coupe 16VT (195 BHP) Excellent Conditon.

    my mates got a bravo hgt in yellow with the 5cyl 20v engine in it and i have to say its really is a nice car! it looks pretty sweet in standard trim and ****in gorgeous lowered over 17" kie racing antracites's his is running 175bhp at the mo and it does shift! but then again i am used to a 1.2 punto lol! not sure how the punto version compares to this tho tbh, but have u considered the bravo? there pretty rare too i think unlickely to see many around.

    The HGT is a good car for the money, depends what you want out of a car.

    Would be newer than the civic, more space than a 106. And if you look around should be cheaper!

    Only thing i noticed with the HGT is that its expensive to insure.
