Need inspiration...

... For a new car.


Just wondering if your guys and girls have any suggestions for a new car, looking to upgrade fairly soon.

Was planning on getting Gareth's car but the running cost of it was just no fees-able for my income at the moment, pretty pissed off bout it.

I know alot may say Twingo RS but I am not looking to get one sorry. Any other suggestions will be great


Please be realistic

Got a family to kart around?

Andrew mate, Budget? Engine size? 2 seater ok? Soft top, hatch, coupe?

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

Twingo i-music ?

What about a megane coupe? I got one as a courtesy car and was just lovely! Only like £9-11k now for a fairly new one?

 

[HigtonA]

I knew I missed something out...

Budget - 9K (preferably cheaper)

Engine size - At least 1.4

Hatchback but something with fairly good boot space

Dont have a family to cart around but i would prefer 5 seater.

Cheapish Tax / Insurance

Mk7 fiesta zetec s?

I really like polos, just a good all rounder and can look quite cool with minor mods

Mk7 fiesta zetec s?

That is a good shout, few of my friends said that, and it is growing on me... hmmm.

Or if you want something quicker why not the mk6 fiesta st, or go to the black side with a civic 2.2cdti that has a massive boot and has a good interior, mates mapped his and goes like the clappers!

I've been looking at The Seat Ibiza Bocanegras and Cupras 1.4 supercharged, same engine as the Polo.. 180bhp and 40mpg

These are twin-charged ;-) supercharger for low rpm then larger turbo for high rpm boosting! Don't look like much fun to work on mind!!
