Right,
Had the Coupe about 8 months now, and have got bored with it. Nothing wrong with it other than 1st-3rd gear acceleration is not very good! Love the interior and looks, so after something else with the same combination.
Criteria so far is:
Insurance group: 17 or under
Price: £9500ish
Not any older than 2001 reg, don't want the hassle of upkeep on older models.
Main thing it needs to look good both inside and out, and be fairly quick.
So far, have only seen the Audi S3 which could fit the bill BUT a good example go for way over £9500 
Suggestions would be welcome

Astra Turbo - not a fan (interior is just not that nice imo)
Civic Type R - don't like looks
Leon Cupra R - love one, but none near 9500 unfortunately. Plus interior is nothing special.
Subaru Impreza - bit too much.
BMW 330ci - too expensive

Subaru Impreza WRX is Gp 17, and can get a good 2001 Bugeye for about £9000-£10000 though?

No mention of mileage, but is stunning.
Insurance wouldn't even quote me on the Impreza, so thats out the door.

Thought it was nice, then saw a "Fast Car" magazine sticking out from under the passenger seat.
