If you're after a sapphire Cossie, James Porter on here has got one for sale in the cars for sale section which looks really nice for the money

Otherwise if you're looking for a saph Cossie for £5k, I really think you'll struggle to get a decent one for that money these days.

for a toy the worlds your oyster as cossies and rsts can never really be a daily driver in 2015, mk5 rs2k or frst for me, cossies are just a endless money pit

Scrap all the above and get a gsxr1000 k6 lol

Dc2 Integra not a ford but fun. Don't buy a 5k Cossie you'll end up with a money pit!

I would like something as a bit of investment too or at least holds its value Do like the focus or fiesta St but prices are forever dropping has to be a ford really

s2000 then when your bored stick a charger on it

Agree a cossie for the budget will be a money pit. 1600i or mk2 xr2 will be a good investment and great fun to own and drive.

Forgot to second the s2000 if you prefer the modern, epic cars and epic value for money.

in that case a decent FRST as prices are rising, focus mk2 STs bottomed out last year and are slowly rising but like any ford in time they will all rise unlike many other brands and as for you lot saying go jap, wash your mouths out

How about a mk1 Mazda 3 MPs 260 bhp out the box.
If you buy the aero they had eibach suspension on them and they are very easy to tune.
Very understated car. Prices of these are also on the up as its one of those cars that was overlooked by most people but now realise what a good car they are.
