How old are you mate? I'm asking cause if you're under 25 you may have to budget ££££ for insurance!

Personally I would highly recommend sidelining some of your budget for modifications, I really wasn't that impressed with the handling out of the box of either of mine (on my second now). An uprated anti roll bar on the back with solid droplinks and a full geometry setup would be well worth getting done and it would be worth thinking about improving the brakes too, especially if it hasn't got 4 pots as the 2 pots are pitiful

Of course you may be able to get one with all this done already which will save you the trouble and DEFINITELY keep money back for extra security, the reason I'm on my second is that my first was stolen

Are you looking for a UK car or an import?
