Hi all, I'm having a bit of trouble feeding my 'I need a new car' monkey.

My criteria are;

Rwd
Post-2000
Turbo
Petrol
Manual
4 seats (or usable for adults 2+2)
Not a BMW or Nissan S15
Budget £10k

Any suggestions appreciated smile

This does seem tricky, what about:

Lexus IS220d
Mazda RX8

I'm struggling to think of anything else smile

Edited to remove diesel car.

Yes I've just added petrol & manual. Thing is I've owned most of the early to late 90's jap turbo cars - 200sx, Supra, Rx7's etc and just want something similar but newer with modern cons, but can't find much!

If you put in all your criteria it comes up with limited choices.

Trade the turbo for a supercharger and get a Monaro?

Are you willing to be flexible on all of these requirements and consider a Suzuki X90?
