Hmm, I don't quite see how the interior mings when the interior is leather and top of the range, but each to their own.

If you want people to help you find a car then maybe you should be a bit more specific of details.

Honestly I can't think of much worse than having to drive summit like a Mondy about. I hate lardy 4 door saloons why not get summit a bit different or at least good looking. 2 Grand could get you summit nice in my opinion & the way they make cars these days it wouldn't have to be juicy or un reliable.

Just had a think & reckon 2 grands worth of MX5 is what you need just in time for Summer.
Anyone you can't fit in can take the Bus.

It's not the seats as such but the dashboard. Change of materials with the 2003 model year which are much nicer

I don't need a car of that size but it would be very useful especially for the trips I do to LANs etc. Been driving about in a Golf for 2.5 years but it's costing me too much

An MX-5 would be nice but not what I'm after right now

I didn't mean to come over so negative but Honestly driving a Lardy motor about is Terrible on the Soul.
Get a Derv Fabia & re map it, I know that sounds Mental but 60+mpg & loads of Torques are fun fun fun in a little motor.

Had my fun with the Golf already (1.4 TSI, 170bhp ) so after something a little more sedate and cheaper on the insurance

As I said earlier I'm trying to get my finances all sorted so cheap, practical car for now. MX5 next time
