Firestar_3x said:Its a shame his 4k won't get him a MK2 MX5, he would be better getting a mint Mk1 V-Special since he wants the 1.8.
What about waiting another year, save some more money and get a MK2 1.8i S so you get all the toys (Electric Mirrors / LSD etc.)

Well yes i was thinking that myself accually. Also one huge thing is that insurance will be easier next year. NUD wouldnt quote me even on the mk1 1.6


Mr_Sukebe,
Please don't have a go at Fox, i said preferably a RWD to him for a reason, i wanted to see what he thought for both FWD and RWD, i had my guesses what cars he would say. Yes maybe one of his replies wasnt in the nicest tone but he had only done what i had asked him.
Also driving experience/fun factor goes above practicality. Infact the idea of a t-bar/soft top is appealing to me, also the hairdresser comments on the mx5 does not bother me in the slightest.
Really the list now is...
mk1 mr2, mk1/2 mx5, s13, rx7.
Of course i need to look at them closer as i have not sat in any of them. I will also have a look at the examples of cars from different classes for £5k. Make sure that its this style for sure i want, yes that includes the 3/5 series. But i think i will put all this off for a year, i will have more money and insurance will be less so easier to get insured.
I suppose being 19 and 2 NCB isnt too bad on the above cars i listed? Maybe the rx7 will be bad for the turbo...
