well done mate, great to see the f20 been put in to a rolla (other than an ae86) will be watching to see the rest of this build. keep up the good work mate,

Your MR2 is overrated! fair play to ya! don't ever sell it.....you WILL regret it! put a 20v in her and WOW it will change it for you all over again.

Mate my thoughts would be on a durty diesel as the cost of diesel is far cheaper over there than here and for what you get millage wise its far cheaper on the pocket. opt for the extra 150euro or what ever it is to bring your xs down becasue some rental companies will nail you on even a scratch. if your traveling around mainland europe do try travel by train you wont regret it it is amazing what you see and you'll always be refreshed when you get to where ever you are headed. ireland and the uk....ye get a car, you'll see so much more and the roads, esp on the back and country roads, that i promise. if your looking for a good hire company for ireland and the uk try carhire3000.ie i went home(ireland)with my partner last year for a little over 2 weeks and rented a 2011 ford focus 1.4TCDI and it cost me 376euro for the time i was home with unlimited klms. that car was a little rocket and it did 1000Klms to a tank. if i can help you in any other way feel free to shoot me a pm. enjoy your trip mate and enjoy Ireland.

G'day all, another noob here! Born and raised in Ireland, moved to Australia 4 years ago and been living in Perth for the last 2 years. i've a 82 KE70 that was going to be a daily but the rust is very bad, so i thought just turn it into a drifter......but we'll see, if i find more rust as i strip it will be used for cuts and i'll just get another one......or two. had a few Toyota's in the past (worked for them as well) KP60/61 AE86 AE111 EP82 EP70 and shame shame i've had even more Honda's. I've always wanted a KE70, Dad and Grandad had one, fell in love with them and i remember my Dad said to me when i was 12 just after they scrapped my grandad's one, that one day we'd find a cleaner one and restore it to have ready for my 17th bday, well he didnt make it to my 13th bday let alone my 17th but i've always said that i will find the right one and build it in his honour and i think i have a better chance of doing it over here than back in Ireland. anyway, sorry about the ramble, glad to be here and hope to meet you all at some stage. best of luck, Paddy.
