RS6 lad!!! I love mine!!!! Best thing i did getting rid of two cars and getting one that does everything! Its going in tomorrow for stage 2 (Sports cats, remap and gearbox remap) so should see 520ish bhp!
Looked at M3's myself, lovely cars but just far too common!

Although an M3 would be awesome, they are really not as comfortable as you'd expect on long journeys.
I voted Audi A5. jr has experience of an A5 3.0TDi Quattro and says it's all the car you'd ever need.
Failing that, a BMW 3 Series coupe of some sort.

Wouldn't that be as uninspiring as a Vectra though?
If he did go down that lines, would have to be the 2.3 twin turbo diesel engine.

That is also a car that would fall to bits. I know Steve is into his fitness, but I'm not sure if pushing about a tonne and a half of Italian metal counts.

308s are suprisingly reliable, my dads hasnt had anything wrong in the 7 years we've had it, any car will fuck up if you dont maintain and drive regulary

Are you sure, or have I misunderstood?
Only the Impreza and the VXR have four door options? 
The A4 "Cab", doesn't have a four door option, because its a convertible. Likewise with the Saab. The E46 M3 didn't come as a four door either, likewise with the A5.
