M3 coupe
Austin Maestro 1.6 Auto

 

wot wud u do with the other 2500 quid then buy a stupid body kit lmao

 

172 clio sport...........

 

x type jag
must say i've been looking at a rs turbo but might be to unreliable for every day

 

Keep saving and buy something decent.

 

there's loads of decent cars for 3k

 

IYO maybe, but as you've already mentioned reliability is the key when looking at cars in this price range.
And as said before a saxo or similar on its arse with loads of kit and filler is probly what he's looking for, so i guess your right ,there are loads of them about.

 

a bit left field maybe but what about MG ZR or ZS.

the 1.8 VVC (160 bhp) versions go for about £3k and other than the well documented head gasket issue they seem to be pretty good and quick ish.. most will have had the HG done by now as well

Look good to IMO.. 'specially in X power grey..

plenty to choose from so find a good one won't be that hard.

Mazda 3 MPS lets face it, nothing else gets a look in
