Not a limited run. However there's only about 4,500 in the UK.
However there were only 4501 Mk1 RS worldwide.
I'd suggest a Mk1 RS.

Escort Cosworth unmodified and low miles (sub 20k) needed and you will pay for this.

I'd say a good Evo MR like Jay's at about 15K would be a good shout. They seem to hold there price very well.
Also an E46 CSL is a no brainer IMO as they have been static or rising for the last 5 years.

People should post examples of their suggestions to prove they are are in budget.
Most suggestions are well out of budget so far

A classic vw will more likely make you money if you buy right.
A early beetle or may get a decent splitty van for it.
Failing that a lotus carlton, mk1 escort will keep there value but harder to move on I would say than a vw.
