I want something smart and reliable. Something respectable... I'll be commuting a few miles in it daily but nothing special. Planning on commuting to London on trains soon so it'll be a pleasure car really. I want something newer that I don't have to maintain all the time, but then I think about buying a Corsa XE and saying £8k.

I just drooled at that track Cossie but it's hardly a commuter...

Got the R6 for silly speeds but I would like a Corsa XE too. I suppose I could get an XE and also a little sensible car like a Corsa C or something... My mate has a S3 and I just drool over it every time I see it.

I was also thinking of an 2002 style Civic Type R?

That's kind of sensible but fun rolled into one...

Sensible, grown up but fun when you want it to be.

Don't forget though, you buy a car like that and your fuel bill may be huge, parts etc so best to save abit just incase, unless you have more money
