• Hello! Long time no posting from me. I've finally got bored of my 15year old E46 compact and looking of getting shot of it for something more fun. Got a budget of 5k or so and want something more interesting/faster/bigger. Perhaps a sporty estate or a hot hatch. Anyone got any tips?

  • What do you want to do with it?

    @BRM suggestion of mk5 gti will certainly be as capable as you need but it’s not very “exciting” or “interesting”.

    R56 Mini Cooper S JCW might just be in budget?

    Others might argue that’s similarly mundane.
