Although disliked on here  , a clean ERST. Left pretty standard looking, i like em.
Errrrm, dammit, £6k, errrrr
Always fancied Modifying a Tigra, or (dont laugh) a Ford Probe 24v. Seen some mental ones modified in the USA, just not very popular over here (yeah i know there not amazingly fast).
Civic VTi? (1.6 16v version, whatever its is)
I dunno, im rolling cars off the top of my head here, really, i haven't got a clue Brains not working today.
ERST - old and pikey imo
Civic VTi... love em... high insurance though
106gti - probably
tigra - had one... gsi engine alright... girlie tho
probe - reminds me of max from brookside
others r a bit old really... need something newer than 1992 really for reliability

Oooooooo tough choice mate as i like MR2's 
K reg ..V.. T reg though!
I'd get a 306 GTI-6 personally.Best of both worlds and they probably handle the same or even better than the 106 GTI

im just saying with 6k, and im guessing uve allready got a corsa
2.0 16v conversion = 1500
SBD TB 208 kit - under 2000
Then get FK coilovers = 500
Astra GTE brakes = 70
Imerisher or Stermintz (spelling) full body kit so its got the euro sporty look and a set of 14s should come to 6k all fitted
id rather have that than a 106 gti or a mr2
still ur choice and every1 likes different things, would be boring if every1 thought the same things

Probably will go to a 106GTi
Yep already have a corsa, fed up ... even 2 litre ones etc dont really do anything for me. Still a corsa, fancy something completely different and spend some cash on it. Not really went far with corsa... maybe 2000 pounds spent on it?

Gotta be looking at very low 1/4 in 14s. 0-60 wont be fantastic, getting the traction down would be the problem.
It would be a low 6 second, maybe even high 5's. Whatever, there wont be much on the road that could keep up.
