how much should l pay for one in the uk

Turbo engines have a very hard life. Do not buy a used turbocharged car, have a new one paid for by a company, with maintenance at their expense. Or keep four grand back for a ''new'' engine or major repairs.

It depends on the condition. Turbo cars are no more or less reliable than other sporty cars, you can safely buy a used one.

Judge the condition of the car and use a site like edmunds.com that takes your exact location into account. The region of the country makes a difference when considering the value of a car.
