Looking at Honda civic type r 2007 era, anything else you can think of that ticks my boxes, Decent Handling, manual, petrol, not too slow.

Edit Has to have some Practicality too lol

Another vote for Mazda 3 MPS.
Genuinely fun but fairly practical little cars with a lot of character

Not at 4k.

OP, consider a BMW E46 330ci or E92 330i.

Love my 330ci.

All 3-series coupes have fold-down rear seats, so more practical than the saloon on which it's a rare option.

Would £4K get you a later (not £500 a year to tax) model that hasn’t been to the moon mileage wise?

You might also be able to get a nice 325ti or 130i - neither are too slow ( 145 or more ) and have folding rear seats and hatches for practicality

Was going to recommend the 170 Giulietta too. (petrol).

Handles really well. 170bhp whilst being good on fuel when not in a hurry.

Nice looker in my eyes too. Just a bit quiet
