Just looking for some car suggestions for potential new cars

so far i have
Leon Fr
Audi tt (new shape)
mini cooper s (not overly keen after a test drive)
Golf R32 (lovely just silly money on insurance)

-Cant be older than 2004, newer the better.
-petrol or diesel (would prefer diesel though)
-Needs to be reasonable to insure (21/4 years ncb decent postcode)
-Needs to handle relitively well.
-Needs to look reasonable
-3dr/5dr not too fussed depending on looks

just after general ideas as im stuggling to think whats out there at the moment

so go ahead with suggestions (pics welcome )

Octavia VRS
Insignia
C30

What about the new Ibiza's Matt? The FR/Cupra models don't look too bad

Spanking new MiTo, 1.4 Turbo in both 120 and 155bhp and also 1.6 diesel.

Insurance is dirt cheap and for 16k you could get a nice one

focus st3. can get an 07 plate one (with dark xenon headlights) for about 12k now, possibly even less.

to get an idea of insurance. i live in an average postcode area, 21, 3 NCB and 2 non fault accidents with lowering declared it's £1070, will probably be around 900 quid with 4 NCB.
