How about an Alfa 147 GTA with some decent mods:

I’m not sure. Seems to have the right mods you want and none of the ones you don’t, but it’s overdue a cambelt on time rather than miles (five years) so you’ll need to factor in a grand immediately.@Nayf , has this one (or was it one of the sister cars) not been offered before?

Auction fees look strong, 30% on hammer price to cover Buyers premium, online commission and VAT
There is something about that I don’t think is right. Front bumper looks damaged, don’t like the painted centre console or instruments. Lights, door handles, tints, exhaust fit all a bit odd. The owners only had it since last year but the MOT ran out in April, seems weird. Don’t get carried away. I’ve gotta think it’s at an auction for a reason.
In fairness the panel gaps were never uniform from the factory…There is something about that I don’t think is right. Front bumper looks damaged, don’t like the painted centre console or instruments.

Check the underside carefully, if you can, go through ALL the paperwork, looking for replacement of usual stuff. Has it had an ECU for example. Personally not too keen on the cosmetic ‘upgrades’, but these aren’t the important bits. Has strut braces front and rear too, plus lowered suspension, may be somewhat harsh on the road. Like nayf said, well overdue a cambelt, should be 4 years/40k miles, no matter what any service schedule says. Mine has had 4!
It won’t go for as much as 12-15k either.
Good luck, when they are good examples they are great, nothing like them really, even when new never mind now!
Does the guy in NI still own the car?It does have MOT. The owner is based in NI so it doesn't show up on MOT history. I agree with your other points.

I enquired about the car earlier this year and he seemed quite genuine. He moves cars on quite quickly but is a petrolhead. He was very open about the car and its condition.
