I really want (need) the thrills of a Caterham. The Fireblade is highly rated for fun factor and so far appeals the most.

Im looking to spend under £7000 probably. I really need sub 5-second to 60mph ie. oh-my-gawd acceleration!!!

To give a taste of my driving level... limited in rear wheel drive but did learn to drive at the age of 10 and in a BMW 320 for the next 7 years. Thereafterafter nothing too exciting but everything else I drove was put into the most bizarre situations possible in 2 dimensions...with occasional wanders into the 3rd dimension!

I am a restrained driver but i learn fast and quickly find the limits and respect them, so a dont think fireblade will be too much of a jump....beside the sequential box is too good to miss!

I'd appreciate comments/advice guys, cheers.
