New Car with a 6k Budget

A mate of mine is doing my head in cause hes so indecisive

Hes just gone out and got himself a fairly new Pug 206 GTi...now hes decided its not the car for him as its a disapointing drive

So its my mission to get him a car...hes given me the following must haves and must nots etc...

BUDGET OF £6K

* Must be Manual
* Must have 3 Doors
* Must have more than 2 seats
* Must not be White or Red
* Must not be a Ford
* Must be no less than 150bhp


If you had 6k and was looking for a car that wasnt an Evo...what would you go for?

Might be lucky and find a civic type R for that price if the 6K is cash.

I think a Civic would be difficult for that, but you could get a DC-2 Integra Type-R, although if you're not allowed white or red that only leaves a black one.

Great cars, fun and cheap to run too.

Probably the best driving FWD chassis ever too...

How about this one

A toyota celica GT4 WRC, you will pick a minter up for under 6k and they are a lovely piece of kit.I sold one to buy my EVO VI.its not in the same class as the evo but its not that far off and the insurance is peanuts,and the handling is far superior to the supra.
