Damn, need to find my next car, want something small with some modding potential, under group 10 for about £3.5k-£4k. But it needs to be pretty nippy and have full electrics and stuff.
I need comfort, a bit of power and some decent looks.

Yeah i know, so gave up on the idea.
Just cant think of anything that has a sub 10 second 0-60 under group 10 insurance that looks alright and costs less than £4k to buy.
