    €5k Budget thread

    Folks, want to get a garage queen I can pick away at over the next while. All I'm looking for are suggestions for cars that will fall within the above budget.

    Ideal cars are rwd/4wd with power, not front wheel drives. Not a fan of old cars I.e pre 90s and don't want a car that needs much bodywork. And the only E36s I like are genuine sport wagons before all the suggestions start flooding in

    Japs and Germans apply!

    Tbh Ketron I did consider it alright due to the low mileage and what you have done to it, pm me on details if you want to.

    No preference on body type or engine size irrelevant.

    Good suggestion, had a Mk1 Cupra R with BAM engine before. Only downside is it's not proper 4wd with the haldex set up so imho compromises the handling.
