I'd go Scoob at that budget, and I have 2 Evos
Reason being 5k is average to below average condition 5/6, or good condition 4.
Although the 4 is fine, it has it's negatives (prone to crank walk, not as visually dramatic and the 5/6, smaller brakes, small arches so skinny tyres are the order of the day)
A 5 or 6 at that money is unlikley to be either mint or in 100% good order, you might get lucky though, so still worth a look.
Looking at Scoobs for sale, you seem to get newer nicer cars for the same money that an Evo would cost. As a daily you'd want reliability and and very average power (280-350bhp), which a Scoob would surely deliver easily enough.
