Best car for under £2k?
Discussion
As the title says really, what is the best car that I could buy for under £2k?
I am looking for something quick, that handles well, can seat 4, is fairly reliable, but can also be comfortable on a long run. High mileage cars don't bother me, and I can service it myself if need be along with other basic jobs.
Fuel consumption is not really an issue as I will be doing significantly less miles very soon.
Insurance however is a bit of a problem. I do not want to be paying any more than £2k a year, so something in the range of an Integra Type R, or an E36 328i is what I can insure. Obviously less is better!
I would ideally like RWD, but am open to options. I would like to do some track days as I want to become a better driver, and dive further into my fascination with cars!
Thanks for any help

If I was spending £2k I'd go for a clio 172 just because they're a great laugh to drive,
my old one was comfortable enough to drive to Switzerland and back and reasonably reliable and parts were cheap when it did brake, good mpg and not that bad to insure.
Looked great, but the insurance companies really don't like it my old one was comfortable enough to drive to Switzerland and back and reasonably reliable and parts were cheap when it did brake, good mpg and not that bad to insure.
£3200 a year! :O
