So after torturing myself for the last few months over what car to get next... this week im feeling like i'll put things off for 12 months or so and get myself a cheap track car instead.
At the moment im thinking road legal, not particularly fast, must be RWD, and under £2.5k. Im leaning towards a mk3 MX5 (maybe CAT C or D for my budget) or an RX8 - but the reliability is quite off putting as i could be buying a lemon.
Other options could be an e30 BMW but they seem hard to find at that budget these days (unless you want a 316 auto), or occasionally a Porsche 924 or 944 comes up around that budget.
I had considered an IS200 as they're RWD and was briefly tempted by Tarmac's for sale at the moment, but i want something a bit more fun to drive.
Longer term i may buy a trailer to tow it to track days but not right now.
Reviews on the mk3 MX5 say its not great and not as good as previous gen cars... but surely for RWD fun it's got to be right up there hasnt it??
