Already got a 2 seater + the Scooby, don't have space for a 3rd car so I'd be boring and pay some off the mortgage and spend the rest ......

2000 V Reg TVR Tuscan 4.0 S
Its in Autotrader for under 20k -> Not bad for a car that will almost hit 200 mph in standard form

Oh and there is one in Autotrader for under 15 k so thats a car that will do over 195mph for under 15k wow I will have some of that ...................

The mighty TVR Tuscan S has taken the Tuscan one step further. Not only in terms of performance but also in styling, the Tuscan S is designed for the true enthusiast - a 390 bhp evolution with a top speed of over 195 mph. A hi?tech power plant that propels the 1100 kg 4.0 litre Tuscan S to 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds. The styling of the Tuscan S has also been finely tuned. Our engineers spent many an hour in the windtunnel to make the Tuscan S one of the first production road cars actually to have downforce over both axles thanks to a gurney above the bootlid and a splitter under the front grille. The Tuscan S designed for ultimate performance.

For 20k I'd have something like an old RS500 Cossie and use the change to buy an R32 Skyline, just for a laugh
