I know these posts pop up all the time and half of you must be bored to death of them BUT...
I just can't find any car that's appealing to me. I want to buy one this weekend, if somebody comes up with the model of car I end up buying I'll send them a tenner.

Must be
1) Under £10k (although I'm flexible to spend more if it's something awesome)
2) Over 25mpg
3) 4 seats
4) Reasonably reliable
5) Sub 8 seconds 0-60
6) Less than 8 years old

Fire away please...

Must be
1) Under £10k (although I'm flexible to spend more if it's something awesome) easily
2) Over 25mpg -probably about right, spank it and forget about it
3) 4 seats -check
4) Reasonably reliable -pretty reliable indeed
5) Sub 8 seconds 0-60 -well below 8
6) Less than 8 years old -get an 02 plate with 40/50k on for the budget

That's the way of thinking that I'm into now, I am on the hunt.

Take your time, I only went in yesterday as I hadn't filled out my time sheets for the time I was off, so I get 3 weeks

M3 fits that bill, im getting 27MPG out of mine and 5second 0-60, very reliable and practical to use everyday and on 51 plate so just fits into your spec
You can have mine for £10 K
