If you can find one for the money(would be hard me thinks!) then go for a MKIV Astra SRI, either 1.8 or 2.2!!!!

Or a Astra MKIII GSI, very nice and very quick!!!!

I'm 20 and I have a 98 Punto GT Turbo. Really nice car, looks great and is pretty damn fast, you can pick one up in really good condition with low miles for around £4500.
I'm actualy opting to sell my Punto though and buy a Corsa in order to put a 2.0l turbo in it.
If you have alot of no claims bonus and your 25 ish+ you could get a nice Nissan Sunny GTi-R for around £5000, 4WD 2.0l 16v DOHC turbo 220Bhp. You could also get a VTS or 106 GTi? or a Clio 1.8 16v? or even maybe a Clio williams?
Personaly, if I had a Corsa and 5K, I'd make the Corsa better/faster. Either a 2.0l 16v or 2.0l turbo engine, a set of racing shocks and springs and some Astra GSi brakes. But, if you are all about 25 with a good few years no claims then I'd have the Pulsar.
