id look at getting an 03 04 plate, most have quite abit of mileage on em now, look around and dont just jump in, cause theres bloody loads, my 04 plate had the tiptronic 5 speed auto box, awesome car, it had a remap by previous owner, rst's and even st150 couldnt touch it, it just pulled and pulled, i only had the prob with the gearbox, go for a manual and you should be ok
