New car time - what to get for 5k ish

got a quote for an fto today, £1200 and I’m 23 (24 in 6 weeks) but only have 1 year ncb. Still not sure about them mind.

I’m trying to source a good manual 200sx as I fancy something with rwd. Plus my dad had one and a mate still does so I know a bit more about them than the others. They’re all bloody autos though :frowning:

If you like rwd, then a beemer as N2O suggested may be an idea.

Volvo T5 ?
Insurance permitting of course

Theres a good selection of TVR 350i’s on AutoTrader coming in under the 6k budget.

yeah, not cheap to run though
