In a nutshell. For fun and your budget nothing else even comes close.

But the old rule applies: try as many different kart engines as you can before you buy anything.
When I was in the market for my first kart, I was advised by a friend who knew my position and with plenty of experience in karting that I should buy a 125 gearbox kart. I nevertheless went ahead and bought the first thing I had fancied. He was right; I was wrong.
My failure to head the advice was based on the perceived difficulty of running/maintaining them. Having purchased one since I now know I was wrong on that, too.

“once you've driven a gbox you'll never want to drive a dd again!” err, Dave: only 99% correct.
