as per title still looking
and narrowed it down to these to at moment
which would you pick and why
thanks
fury
stylus
The one that best suits my needs
IMO Stylus.
Steve
The Stylus - it looks prettier! the bonnet on the Fury is horrible.
Surely you will ditch either of the engines and fit a bike engine anyway!?
The Fury - it has a K series and Minilites.
Any of the two actually, but the Fury for me.
don't be daft, the fury is beautiful.
Definitely the fury, although you may have some more competition now
(lies, I don't have any money )
The stylus doesn't float my boat.
Stylus, but i'm biased
I would say Stylus, but hey I'm biased off course as I'm also the webmaster for the Stylusclub:

When was the Fury registered/built?
got to say the stylus does it for me, purely on the basis of the colour!
Built in 1996 by Fisher sports cars
i like the stylus
but its not been on road for a year or so
and was never fully finshed only interior bits
but would to be tralered home
were as the fury
is ready to drive home and looks a lot easyer
to change engine
oh i dont no ?
STYLUS every time
Of those two the stylus.
Fury needs the lowline bonnet and a respray to something other than that green.
Stylus doesn't suit a BEC IMO, better with a V8 or a cosworth.
p.s. Ivan has the most sensible comment so far

The fury for me, unless you are planning an engine change.

The Fury I guess, but would make do with either. Think I'd prefer a crossflow to the rover engine though.
the fury is for sale at £4,000

Just curious, why doesn't the Stylus suit a bec?
I'd go with the Fury (yep , a bit biased ) , mainly because of the easy engine/mechanical access the flip front gives - exactly the reason I
made the same choice
The Stylus is more practical for every-day use - better hood , a usable boot and better doors - but then My Fury is often a year-round car ,
regardless of weather .

Fury... but then I'm biased.
Find the Stylus too cute and prefer the look of the Fury.
Deciding factor as Claire said is the man-hole bonnet on the Stylus. A lot easier to work on the Fury engine.
K-series shouldn't be a problen if you let it warm up before thrashing it and fit the moded thermostat. Lighter than a cross-flow, but I guess
you're planning a BEC transplant.

I'd take the Fury but's it's on a Q plate which I don't like and the colour is .

The Fury and Stylus use pretty much the same inboard suspension at the front - here it is on my Fury

mmm. That looks very nice indeed.
Just one question - What heater unit is that?
James
A biased vote for the Fury!
The Fury has the better engine, and normally I prefer the styling, but the rather prominent bonnet bulge doesn't do that particular example any
favours.
However, as always build quality is one of the most important factors, so inspection of both would be a good idea.
