Could get a nice S3 for that.

I wouldn't consider the Toyota, I've driven one, felt a bit gutless and didn't handle too well.

CTR for 5-6k and stick the rest in the bank. Not that it will do much nowdays


Or integra DC5 or is that too big?


Cooper S's are nice too

Something like that. Only oil and filter. Easy enough to do. Cambelt, Clutch and AYC fluid change is a coont though
