Elise, GT86/BRZ (I won't cheat and list them separately), Megane RS, M135i, and if I can stretch the haggle an A45 AMG. If I can't, then a Z4 28i could be worth a look. I might even give the current Clio RS a try, but that's a bit small to be a fair comparison I think.
£35K puts you into an 18 mth old Cayman S with plenty of toys too, but then it's unfair to compare new for old so I won't start down that path either.
