I was unaware that the scion xD was used in rally.

A lot of front-wheel drive hatchbacks are used in rally.  Iirc they are all converted to 4WD though.

Renault 12

or

Fiat 600?


They both cost 20k Ars (My savings are around 16k) and I would like a car for my birthday.

EDIT: Couldn't hotlink from Wikipedia.

More news on the Focus.  My dad jacked the car up and pulled out the starter.  He tested it at Auto Zone and....it works perfectly....

The battery is only a year and a half old so I'm kind of doubting that it's the issue.  Jumping the car doesn't work, which pretty much rules it out.

Not sure on what other problems there could be.  Maybe an accidentally disconnected cable?  The car simply doesn't make noise when the ignition is turned.

I think the Renault 12 looks better.

I would probably kill someone for a new WRX STI hatch.

as much as I love hatchbacks and imprezas, I don't care for a mixture of the two :s

My aunts friend who owns a mini countryman went outta town, so my aunt is borrowing the mini. She came over today, it's a pretty neat car, it's comfortable and feels like good quality. She said it's pretty fun to drive, too.

The tires on my van are so big that it is lifted almost six inches and the speedometer is offset the higher speed I go.  For example, if the speedometer reads 65, I'm probably going 73.
