You'd get a good one for that budget aswell. Although i'd try to go a bit more for one of them.

I'll have to agree with Steve on this one. Quite large, good economy and has the pulling power too.

If someone asked me to describe something fairly 'big' I wouldn't use a fabia as an example.
Before you start saying I'm picking on you blah I have noticed you putting forward your fabia in these kind of threads a couple of times when the criteria is quite clearly wrong.

Lol ano people think an arm rest is a stupid thing to pick a car on but when you do about 15 miles a day average it is nice to have a bit comfort and something to lean your arm on!! True?
Steve I dont like the Fabia for some reason it doesnt take to my fancy, but each to there own, I drive a C2 atm lol! Sure loads of people would not have one of them lol!
