Get summat fast but a bit older so you have money left to tune/modify or just keep for what ever astra mk4 GSi or SRi turbo comes to mind

Although clio's or fiesta st or the such seem a safe bet

Can i have your engine when your finished with it?

Nopeee, i'm not in the financial position to atm.

Realistically if i do 90 hours overtime a month (22 hours a week), I could have the money in 3 months

For me, i'd buy a mk3 ibiza 1.8 20vt and spend the rest of the money sorting out all the faults and make it into a really good car
