Ive seen a few 5's go for less, but they are usually high mileage.

CTR is a performance bargin at the moment

Also take a look at the MK3 Ibiza Cupra, brilliant cars for the money as well and can be VERY quick for not a lot of money

How about a nice 206 Gti 180.They seem to be dropping in price just now and not as common as the CTR/182.
