this is so easy, a 99 spec integra type r dc2, the best handling front wheel drive car ever made, i like the ukdm's but most prefer the jdm model, you will find a good example 1999 car if your patient for 5k, or a uk ep3 civic type r if you are strict on the age of car you want. 5k will buy you a tidyish 2002 or high mileage 2003, reliability is no issue and then just down the road when you have saved up some more pennies, you can kpro, mugen mani & spoon bpipe to create a sleeping monster.

You're not ready for the pipe & slippers yet mate.

Get a nice Audi A3 turbo or somethin like that. It's the next logical step.

Just had a better thought, alfa 156 2.4 diesel. On the alfa forums, some of them have got 270hp out of them from a FMIC and a custom map

Alfa's always look nice, but always cost loads when they go wrong - which they do 80% of the time
