If you're spending 8k and dont know the difference then I suggest you do some serious reading up on models etc as you're a prime candidate for buying a lemon.

Theres plenty of cars out there at the moment, on or under budget so you must either be very fussy or not keen on taking the plunge.

Just avoid anything from Cheshire/Clives performance and as said above Hurst Cars would be a good starting point.

I think the only thing that worries me really is mileage to be honest don't really want a car that's done 100k miles and being my 1st im trying to read up on them got to start somewhere

You're looking at 10-12 year old cars! Average mileage is 120k and you'll find you get more problems with performance cars that sit around doing nothing than ones that are regularly used and maintained.

Mileage means nothing if it has a good history and standard of maintenance.

This

Look at a few test drive etc don't rush in and buy the first one you see. A lot of poorly maintained examples out there.

My Blob JDM WRX is now hitting 104k. I know the three previous owners and had no hesitation buying the car as I knew what maintenance and mods had been done to it.
