Are you taking the piss? An AX is alot older than the top of the range sportiest, newest 106!!
Was it a gt? they are quality with a few mods and a 16v lump.

stop looking at Clios. Buy a Porsche 924
what he said try and find a later 2.5 though as it has 160+bhp and a fair bit more torque than the first 2.0s

check out this page http://www.trackscotland.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6
I bought my old 205 for 400quid. Spent possibly 1k on it in total.
It wasnt the fastest car in the world but it let you push the cars handling!
We had it for about 1.5 years or so.... b ut used it as a track car for about 10 trackdays.
They are light on brakes and tyres... fairly reliable is looked after. Only prob we had was with a clutch cable snapping and holing the rad.
Tuning Parts for them are abundant...
You can buy a track preped, or near track preped car for about 1k!
I sold mine for £950
