Lots of nonsense being printed abouts zetecs and ital axles... You can have zetecs in dedion cars too! Love mine personally. Key thing here is how much cash you want to throw at your car, how many miles you plan to do. Also, if you want to tinker. Also, how fast you might want your car to become and what your likely budget would be to achieve that pace!
I had a crossflow and liked it but wanted to be able to upgrade power past 160 brake without mad expense. I think K series are lovely things if you can find one in your budget and vauzhalls are cheap, very quick and tuneable if that's your bag. I personally think the latest car you can buy -the better. (That's the cat in the pidgeons)
Please mail me using the mailer above I'm in Oundle near Peterboough if it's any help. There's a Lincoln area meet that you could visit too.
PS. Mine's not a Q plate either
