I think the noise is possibly the best thing about them.

Thanks for your help guys, that Evo in bristol is sold and i'm gutted about it tbh lol
R32's dont do it for me, slow heavy car.
CTR's are no use either, the wife has one so use that when ever I like.
Monaros, way to big for me.
Looking at a Subaru WR1 just now

Fair enough. I forgot about that. However, the P1 only has 27,000 miles on it. A lot lower than most 03 plate cars are likely to have.

The P1 is a great car but to old for me.

BUT I think I would always say to myself if I bought a scooby that I wished i'd have bought an Evo instead.

I've never driven an Evo or a WR1 so I couldn't say get one over the other for any other reason other than I'd prefer an Evo 8 for its looks.

I was going to suggest an S4 but there not that quick, slower than an M3 etc.
M5 would be my choice but its quite a big car, maybe not what hes after!?
350Z's are Get a good one on a 04/05 plate for that budget.

350Z's are Get a good one on a 04/05 plate for that budget.
but with 340bhp v8 they are still quick though surely? would one stay with an m3 or would the m3 make easy work of one?
