I just want something to bomb about it and act like a 17 year old again without spending loads and loads of money
Saxo VTS / 106 GTi then.
Shouldn't lose much money and are genuinely great fun to drive.

I've corrected that last paragraph for you Dave.

Wouldn't say no to a quick shag in a Renault Clio down a country lane. As long as she was female

A friend of mine has one for sale...
"Okay, so i know I'm gonna get a lot of stick for this but this is a serious post.
I'm getting my new car this week. Which means my old one is gonna have to go. I know it's not the most macho car out there, but it's in good nick. With tax and an mot on it and it's only done 72,000 miles in 10 years. The prices have taken a bit of a dip on them recently so I'm only after £850 for it. Next week I'm going to put it on eBay and it will go for whatever it goes for but i thought i would see if anyone i know would like a nice little two seater first.
If anyone wants more details or information. Message me or give me a call.
Meanwhile, check out the photos.
...And if you could share this about. That would be helpful."

Just get one pow, although 1.7 pumas are bloody great fun and almost as girly.
You can pick them up for tuppence now. Absolutely loved mine, shame it looked so gay. Handled as good as, if not better than the Z4. I stripped the interior of mine out and it felt very raw aswell as bring practical for dump runs.

I've changed dozens of racks on Kas Pow and they were all a hoot to drive and remarkably roomy for a heavy set chap of 6' 3'' such as myself.
This is with the exception of the convertible one, which was like trying to climb into a briefcase. Horrid things.
My favourite was the luxury one with the leather and air con. We had a minted black one in. Cracking little motor.
I'm surprised how much hate a small, teardrop shaped hatchback is getting on a forum intended for owners of small, teardrop shaped hatchbacks

Yes and some dreams about fitting it. Rear that is, going to retain the GSi front.

Just made me look at these. Didn't realise they were so cheap, I'm sure in summer/few months ago they were still nearer 2k..
Shame they rot like mad, be ideal for my mother.

I put and engine in a sport ka. Surprisingly fun little car to drive, no as quick as it could be.
I think the previous incarnations of the ka ruined it's image before the sport came along.
