Right,

i dont want to bore anyone, but im really stuck here,

i need to buy a new car soon, i have between 2-3k
it needs to be 1.4 or 1.6 nothing bigger or smaller,

been looking at:

Corsas obviously, B's
Fiestas
Puma - these i know are girly but i quite like them, im not a gay.
honda civic

guys any advice would be appreciated, thanks

right, from your suggestions

corsa, there are better cars for the money
fiesta, zetec s handles well but looks gay
puma, 1.4 and 1.6 are shit, 1.7 is the only one worth having
and civic, i guess you mean a 1.6 VTi, that will kill you on insurance

I'm 6'1 and have really wide feet and have trouble with my chunky work shoes, but I driv in trainers to work. Build quality isnt the best but performance and handling makes up for it.

They arent anymore uncomfortable than any other small cars TBH.
