got £4.5 k max
i want something fairly new, like a 2000 model, needs to be fairly cheap to run, ie not 2l 16v engine as im gonna be doing 450 miles a week soon.

was thinking of a 2000 1.6 sport ibiza.

civic vti..p/r/s reg. 160bhp..seen em 4 4grand. subtle styling, but can look good when styled well.
or what about a corrado vr6? 4.5k would get an k/l reg. 190bhp. fast as f**k.
or even a xsara vts. 167bhp, very underated, and depreciate bad, so u would get an x/y reg for that money.
