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.
