Civic Type R is a lovley car, still not sure about the dash gear control though. And not very torquey.
Astra GSi, not too keen on the looks, but that 2.0litre turbo is great and has MASSIVE tuning potential. 260bhp from 9litre intercooler, chip, exhaust and filter. Gotta be good!!!
The Leon, also, great car. I didn't like them, but just seen the slightly re-vised new one the other day and it was REALLY nice. Mmmmmmmmm

Had a look on the Autotrader Website earlier and found a nice EVO 4 GSR with only 29K on the clock for £14K but really do prefer the look of the Evo 5
Oh yeah and that was the best one within 100 miles of my post code

Ibiza R has same engine as standard leon cupra. leon cupraR has same engine as audi TT and S3

Cheers for all the help Lads but I just thought I'd let yous know after all this debating I'm going for a car that nobody mentioned.
I know some of yous think Impreza are common, but my I was speaking to my Dads mate last night and he told me he'd sell me his RB5 it's a 99T 39K with all the usual trimmings for £14500. Had a quick look on the Trader website and they all seem to be going for about £15K. Plus I know this ones be looked after, its his pride and joy. Taking it out for a drive tonight, can't wait.
Once again cheers for the help Lads!

Gibbson, your car does'nt look like a Postman Pat van.
The new Civic does, don't get me wrong I would have one if given one.
But if I had £15k I would by either the new Corsa GSi or the Astra GSi.

Get the Civic, the Astra looks boring and is a boring car to drive.
Tust me, once youve drivin a car with a vtec engine you'll never want to go back.

The RB5 is nice mate, good decision, nice detailing in the interior too.
Don't see too many of them around either. Think they had a limited run of 500!
