Do this. It's bloody brilliant, and shows you how a car really behaves once past the limit.
I saw a brilliant looking red one near ascot earlier. Started browsing AT when I got back. Then realised I have a child, so a 3 door might not be the best idea!
R26. 1*2's feel pretty old these days (albeit fun!). 200's are decent, but an R26 is better in every respect.
But I'd drive a few, you might prefer a 200!
A car can be comfortable and relaxing (less fatiguing), and still brilliant to drive. An e46 m3 for example, better at both aspects than a 182 (for example).
A Mk5 gti is the ultimate all rounder (at that price point).
I had a 200 (non cup), and it's a better daily than a 182. But meg r26/225 are similar money. An r26 is a better daily than a 200, and better on a b road.
That's where my money would go.
They aren't r26 money. You'd be an absolute chancer to price it that way.

You've got a sorted, reliable car with a platform designed for power.
Or you found spend a s**t load on an old, shitty clio, get a turbo which seems to cause more hassle than it's worth and spend as much time dealing with issues and niggles as you do driving the thing.
If you want small...
Same as the last one. Don't care what it does (and ring times have got a bit pointless), it just looks a bit stupid. Aesthetics don't bother me a great deal, but I'd feel a total weapon in one of those.
