if you had £15k, what car would you spend it on.
preferbly a newish one, 2000 onwards...
need to consider practicality with good power.

£15k is potentially a very late Astra GSI, or a convertible or a nice coupe.
£15k for a 2000 year car is something entirely different, loads of choice in that bracket including IS200, many BMW, possibly an OK Merc etc.
You'd also certainly find a nice VX220 or maybe an Elise.
I wanted practicality with a convertible so I bought an old Corsa

New shape Elise can be had for £15k. It is also by no means a hair-dressers car. If you've driven one you'll know

£1900, then threw the wheels on it and spent another few hundred quid tidying it.
