Buying a £15k sports car for track days and daily driving

I have a stock Toyota MR2 roadster that is excellent for track days. I have £15k to spend on something in the same vein that I can use in the UK and Europe for up to 10 trackdays a year. I want to have a lot of fun, but it will need to be passable as a daily drive. Should I get a Mazda RX7 or Lotus Elise?

Why not a Fiesta ST, maybe with Mountune mods. Not as pure a drive as an Elise, but huge fun and also practical as a daily driver.

Quick, engaging roadster with terrific handling and grip.
Exceptional road handling. 1.6 Ecoboost engine has lots of eager shove. Practical and comfortable cabin. One of the best hot hatches money can buy.
