Hi all,

I had a car disaster back a month into covid last year well,.a life disaster really but I won't go into that. My ,2012 c63 caught fire after a spirited drive. I got most of its value back thanks to admiral who have me 23500 when I bought it for 25000. Ive spend 10k on down windows for the house and have about 10k left. Im furloughed in full salary which is more than the govt limit which is good of my employer. I cannot stand my boss, he's mean and ill-tempered all of the time. I've been looking for new jobs and fingers X'd may have something lines up.

I've got about 10k to play with, ideally I'd get a 135i but they're rare and high milage for that sort of money. I've looked at 125d's and with a remap could be interesting.. I've also come across a 100k mile MK1 boxster for 6950 FSH, manual, tan leather, lapis blue and the insurance is dirt cheap. Part of me says get a Clio sport for 2-3k and use the rest to cover me till I'm financially secure but the madman says to the whole hog and get what I can for 10k and if it goes tits up financially sell it.

Any ideas on fun fast cars for 10k or even half that ?! Manual and rwd or proper 4wd always a bonus. Thanks.
