Default Old people win again...

I was happily driving out of castle car park in York when i was t-boned by an older woman in an Audi A6, she hit me at around 25 mph, so if she hadnt hit me she would have hit the tree behind me. Car looks to b a right off as the B-pillar is bent (all on her insurance) so I'm on the lookout for a replacement. Im looking for something fun that i can truely reach the limits of, the scoob is just too quick/grippy and even though i actually wanted to cry when it was being towed away. I have around 10-15k to spend so was thinking, golf gti, clio R27.. integra type-r or another scoob. Or a bm 330 (maybe d)
Any opinions welcome.

Kind Regards
Steve

You need to host your pics on web space and them drop them in like a link. There are free hosting sites about, not sure which are best though.

anyway... on the cars..

Id have a scoob over all those you sugested. You cant go from a scooby to a Clio

Audi TT, S3, A3 18T, A4 1.8T, Civic Type-R old shape, Honda s2000, Nissan 350Z, Ford Focus ST, Golf GTi, GT TDI.

with 10-15k id have lots of fun choosing anyway

Sounds to me you need something with big power and RWD if you want something you can take to the limits e

350Z (maybe), M3, Z3M coupe, M5, Monaro...

Oh yeah, i would quite like something that i can service myself and that wont cost the earth to run.. I was thinking rear wheel drive but i love the clio cup car i raced a few years back (that thing would harrass the living daylights out of prosches on track days) and small fwd cars are soo much fun hence the idea of the clio 197 r27
