Need to sell my Civic in a few months or so to fund this...



and need some ideas for a new car... I have a few ideas but still...

Criteria:

Must be below £7k (£6k is pref)
Stylish
No older really than 99 (98 max)
Fairly rapid ie. more than 130bhp (pref)
All these are musts:
A/c, R/C/L, E/W, E/M.
Alloys (obv)
CD player (pref but i suoppose aftermarket is fine)

My best ideas were a 206 Gti, 306 GTi-6 (gearbox worries hav put me off that tho)

An please, nobody say a Saxo (ruled out anyway as they don't have A/C)

Cheers

on the auto trader they start at about £7-7.5k but in a few months time and after a bit of haggling i imagine that you could pick one up for a smudge under 7k
