No offence intended :oops: 'Common' as in lot's of them around, not a reflection on their owners! :lol:

How about a Mercedes 190 Cosworth.... much more exclusive than a jellymould with a tea tray attached :lol: But, to be fair, they were awesome cars to drive. A friend had 2.... at the same time!

I dont think i could ever trust her in old skool rwd turbo'd car!
I can just imagine her face when it comes on boost mid corner!
She has had a quick look at the saab and she really likes them which is good :)
I think the 2.0T Aero is the one to go for.

Hi
I have had both an Audi S3 and Honda S2000 and would recommend them both. Would be the S3 though it you have to do lots of miles daily.
If you wait a bit longer I reckon Ford Focus ST's will be going for that sort of money. My wife has just sold hers, great car, lovely 5 pot growl but a tad thirsty.
Finally, how about a BMW 330?

Gav_T:
I would buy a focus st just for the noise alone! Bet they sound lovely with a induction kit and free flow exhaust. Its about the closest i will get to owning a audi quattro!
I think she has all but settled on a saab 9-3 convertible. We are just going to hold out for the right age/spec/mileage and colour now, which is a 2.0T aero in light grey with under 50ish k with as many toys as possible!
