Brief is it can't be 'shit', must come in under £1,500, and it helps if it's a v8 (or sounds like one)

Shit =
Anything French
Anything Italian (apart from Ferrari)
Anything air-cooled
Anything rear-engined
Anything Rover engined (except v8s, obviously)
Rovers
Diesels
Especially French or Italian diesels
Daewoos
Anything Daewoos are seemingly derived from (especially Rovers)
Vans (so bang goes the Sherpa suggestion)
Automatics (added by edit 29/9/06)

There MUST be something out there for the Rollerskate Boy hehe

You forgot to mention that it must be reliable, able to take abuse on a daily basis, economical on fuel, cheap to repair and (although you've already said it, I think it needs emphasis) not sh1t!
