I've had three. I thought I'd buy my second one to see if my first was just a bad example, or whether it was endemic in the brand.
It was endemic. Highly-strung, great to drive. Complete B-tard to maintain. Rusted away in my garage - out of the rain.

Apart from that I did like them. They were fun.
As much as you won't want to hear it, my advice would be keep your car money and put it into your house instead. At your age forget the car and get your life going. I did what you want to do, and regret it to this day 20 years later. If I'd just kept my head focused I'd be having a far more lucrative life now I think. Not that I've done badly mind you, I just could have done better. Starting out in house ownership is far more expensive, week to week, than anyone would care to admit. There are so many incidentals that you just don't normally come across.
