But the 206 has auto wipers, digital climate control, cheaper insurance. Add some jenvy tb's, manifold and map and 200+ bhp

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

For that price? If you want speed for under £2k, do your full bike license and get an old Fireblade Otherwise, try to get something like a 2.0 16v Zetec Fiesta (Can't be arsed looking when I'm just off a nightshift but they certainly do get about!) and stick twin 40's on it. All can be done for under £1500.
