The Budget - What can you buy for 5K

My father always said "make sure you put some money away for a rainy day" I completely ignored his advise until I have a family of my own. I think i'll be able to pick a car up a decent car up for £5000. At the moment I have exactly zero put aside so I better start saving hard. 
What can you buy for 5K ?

1. A lovely Austin Healey Sprite MK3 in Red with Black leather seats for carandclassic.co.uk

2. A Wartburg Barkas / Framo V901 for a Polish site  otoMoto.pl "I love this truck" This would be great on the Polish roads but not so good for a trip to the shops. Its very tempting, if only I had the money. 
Zl 25000 about  £5000

3. Volvo Amazon 122 S a great looking car with only 72200 km on the clock from Germany. If I had to have a Volvo I would pick a P444 but I'm sure a good one would be more that €5000
