Not a "what car" thread, but can anyone think of any "performance" diesels, that are less than ~£5k?

I'm thinking of cars like the MG ZT CDTi, Vauxhall Astra 888 CDTi etc...

The 888s are under 5k now? yikes
Not yet - but I didn't want a bunch of uber new suggestons (i.e. I want cars I could realistically afford now or in a few years!)

I'm not sure I would consider a MG ZT CDTI a 'performance' car, even for a diesel.
It wasnt the performance I was thinking of, more of the "focus". I.E. the 888 has fancy brakes / suspension...

E39 530d , intercooler, decat & remap gives 280-290Bhp & over 450lbs of torque!
