Right geezers, just need bit of advice! I currently got a motor traders insurance policy with Norwich Union, as my dad is a mechanic. This means if ya dont know, any car we own under a 2 litre, i am insured on for 300 quid. Not 300 brick per car, but for all of them, if ya know what i mean! Gets better, when i turn 21 i am insured on any car, whatever litre for 500 quid insurance. I think im loving this lol 
anyway seen as im in this situation, just wondering what car to get next, be gettin it next couple of months i hope! im only 19, cant be arsed to wait till 21 as my car is foooooked now lol, erm, yeah so what car u reckon i should get?????? Need to be spending bout 10k tho! All i got lol!
Cheers people!

2.0 16v corsa running tb's, and totally modded - for 10k you could probably create summat as quick as tim_rud's unless you want to buy something new.......

Aren't the Clio and Impreza 1998cc?
Cooper S is great but you won't get one for 10k.
Cooper is great too but again you'll only get an early, low spec for 10k.
