£2k I'd get a 172 Clio.
For £3k then you'd get a decent classic or a Type R Civic EP3
But depends where you are and if you want to travel......cars around where I live demand more of a premium then up north hence why I travel up north to get my cars.....almost make a profit from just collecting them lol

Or go to london, you can pick up some high class ****** for about £270 an hour, they will spank and bite you for that too. So 2k could get you almost 7.5 hours of a ****ing good time

well for 2k dont get an impreza and for 3k dont get an impreza unless you want to spend time and money fixing others problems, but looking at your posts you have already learnt that.

maybe you should have started this thread a couple of months ago

Worth saving a bit more, a decent Impreza your looking between £4.5-5k and something across the lines off a bugeye STi or even a classic STi(type ra, type r).

This would be a 2nd car and yes I've learnt the best way what expense comes with an impreza and I don't regret it and am still working on improving the one I have. This thread wasn't about replacing my existing car because I Couldent afford one it's because I fancied something else to play with and wondered what else was about for the money

You should be able to find a fairly decent early WRX for £3k

2 grand gets you everything and nothing, it all depends how brave you are. S class Mercs, V8 E39 5 series, Range Rovers all sorts of premium or sporty motoring. The down side is that if anything goes wrong you are looking at another 2 grand to put it right unless you are good with the spanners!

2K will get you a decent turbo, all you will need next is a car to bolt it onto.
