    Haha thanks. I was split driving with one of my friends so it was more than likely him who was doing the good driving! It was my first day out drifting.

    I used to own one of those carina e. I loved it. lost the key one day so used flat head screw driver to open door(Do that once and lock is broken, no more need for a key) and same flat head to start it. Luckily I live in the sticks, if I lived in Dublin car would be robbed by joy riders, all the work would be done for them. Screw driver in all left in car for them. Is that carina a petrol or diesel?

    Above 3000rpm in 3rd gear ain't so bad.

    I have to say, I really like the noise of it when it's being trashed, much better than any TDI yoke I've heard, the turbo kills the diesel's roar!

    T5R and 850R are the same thing, really. Just that the T5R was the predecessor and a limited run of 4500. Then replaced with the 850R,S70R,V70R which was mainstream.

    *OSI beat me to it*

    Absolutely nothing :)
    She's parked up outside the house, I plan on selling it, buying an 850 or 540 or something else cool and high powered and RWD, then putting the carina as my daily.
