They all have a drink problem lol but this can be controlled with the right foot? As for insurance the UK (turbo 2000) cars r cheaper to insure but are a tad slower than the imports (WRX etc....) When u look at the early imprezas make syre the clutch and gearbox r all in good order?
Hope that helps a lil bit mate

bug eye Wrx is prob your best bet mate, if you like the shape that is.

Or a mint classic? they drive different so best bet is to take a few out.

You could get a classic STi RA for that money mate if u shop around, more expensive insurance but a good foundation to start if u catch the tuning bug.
