My dad has decided he wants a new car. Something pretty powerful, but sensible. getting rid of an ST24 (or) an older volvo turbo (maybe both).
Looking for something along the lines of Evo, Golf 4 Motion, Audi S3 or S4.
Volvo T5, Something that will still be stylish in a few years. wants a turbo, and has around 15K to spend maybe.
Any Suggestions?

Yeah. He loves his cars. Smallest engine'd car he has is a 2.3 turbo.
I showed him a nice escort cosworth, but i think he wants something newer

If you want something sensible I wouldn't recommend an Evo. Not really an everyday use car (needs servicing every 4k miles etc) brakes/clutches won't last an age either Although you can't beat the factor!

Some sort of audi etc...
I personally would go for the BMW M Coupe...get a used one for 15k...Nice M3 engine in...RWD...and BMW reliability...think there around 320 odd BHP...

NICE!!!
