330's seem to all be high mile dogs for that money!! Plus if i got a smaller engined one i know id kick myself for buying an expensive slow car.
I know the TT's a better car etc, but its not going ot get any younger, no matter if its a "better car" its not immune to things wearing out and costing money...
Id LOVE an Mroadster but id be petrified that it would break and cost me a small fortune. Otherwise i want a black one please 
S2000's are ok, dont look good enough unless moded tho IMO.
Still fancy an Mclass

What about an Leon cupra R???
You can pick of a 4 yr old one with low mileage for about £9k now and they will hold there value well due to them bein pretty rare
Spend £350 on one and you'll see an extra 50bhp

jambo my mates got a nice 02 330ci for sale for 9.5k i think, good pace and not bad on fuel. tho the driving position and delayed throttle response annoy a few people on the early e46 models
what about an audi s4? (2.7tt model)

Audi S3? 4WD, comfortable, all the extras you could want, handle well, quicker than an Astra GSi, Insurance not too bad...
Just want you want eh?.... 8-10k should get you a facelift model (2001-02 ish) about 60k on the clock, FSH
Toying with the idea of selling mine for a possible house purchase. PM me if you want to know more about them

 Don't...
They fall to bits, totally unrefined, American SUVs.
Newer one is cool, though way out of budget

Imo the 182 is more of a boy racer car than the GSI-T

So many choices
I know the 182 is stillboy racery but its newer, thats the angle with that one.
The Nova would be amazing, but not gunna do the image thing much good
S3's are ok, but theres something im just not that excited aobut them, would rather a TT. But i suppose its an option.
Mroadster is looking more and more appealing tbh.... Want a black one with a private plate and 19" rims like the one in the picture from nova_gte's alloy wheel thread a while back...
Whitter i hear your BMW advice, family is obsessed with them ive driven a few and loved all of them so solid.
