Not got £7/8k at the moment Looking at a mk2 16v golf by end of feb. Need something a bit bullet proof for next year and not stupid to insure. Next xmas should be getting hefty bonus if all goes ok for company i'm working for so I will be looking at buying something half decent early 2009 probably nothing like an e30 m3 though, although it will defo be rwd

If this was black and had proper rear lights (tinted top) it'd be perfect

Try 10-12k for a genuine one with no rust and with cam belt done.
A year ago you could pick them up for around 7ish but no more
On the last track day I went on these were the quickest things out there by far. One truly iconic car IMO
