New wanting a ds3

[Ryan1992]

Hey guys basically I'm looking at ds3 and very interested in the racing or the dsport plus don't really know much about these cars just love the look lol currently own a c2 so want to upgrade lol won't be buying untill January when I turn 21 lol. Which model would you guys recommend? Also is there anything I've got to look out for??

[Rickzayne]

NOT the racing. Stay away from it.

Go for a new THP 155 and remap it.

or the 115 HDi if you're after economy...

Cant agree with Rick- get a Racing- dont mod it and your warranty is fine for 3 years
Youll be flying around

INSURANCE gotta say of your going for a racing bear this in mind and even with a dsport bear it in mind at 21 mines not cheap. but either is a good choice my input finished

[Rickzayne]

Every racing in the history of ds3club has broke.

Slight Exaggeration but not far off

Test drive all your options first before you decide. Don't set your heart too high as it could cost you a lot unless you have a wealthy relative. All models look great. Two or one exhaust are all that gives it away as to what you are driving.

ds3racing96 has had engine problems

im now going throw my two pence's worth in
as most of the guys on here know i have both a racing & a 1.6 ultra prestige hdi and to be very honest i love driving the ultra
so if you want very fast go for the racing if you just want fast go for the dsport + but with this one you get lot better mpg also watch out for high insurance on the racing being only 21 some company's wont touch under 25's

bye the way my racing has'nt gone wrong yet but it has only done 974 miles

DSport HDi - easy choice...

[Jagster93]

I'd go 115Hdi Great economy and torque that will pin you to the seat when used right! what more could you want?

[Bigfeet]

Sounds daft but I've driven the new VTi 82 engine and it's a bit of a hoot, not mega powerful but sounds good. The reason I mention this is that it's all going to be about the insurance. Check that FIRST before you drive anything otherwise you might have your heart set on something after a drive and then have it crushed by insurance costs.

[Ryan1992]

I've checked insurance cost and its only £200 more on top of what I pay for the c2 so not fused about that lol I'm gunna go for a test drive in the racing and the 1.6thp dsport plus next week hopefully but they are the two I'm really interested in lol

[Chris_Blue]

Go Go Ryan No- not dancing Ha!
If theres still £6k between the Racing and THP, could always consider spending half the difference on the THP to make it faster than the Racing?
