Sorry guys. Ive decided i want to sell my Corsa and get something a bit more comfy and 'grown up' for want of a better word

I was originally looking at BMWs, perhaps a 5 year old max 325, now all of a sudden im not too sure maybe i dont want to spend that much on a car, i dont know.

Just wanted some suggestions really. To give some form of criteria for the time being id say its got to be:

around £10k though if something really tickles my fancy I could stretch to more.
Bigger than my corsa both physically and engine wise (Corsa is a 1,6)
Quick (though nothing ridiculous as ill be 20, so insurance could play a big factor)

so just name some cars for me to look at.

Thank you
Robin

Jamie your criteria is similar to mine.

Top of my list is the Astra GSi, closely followed by LCR.

I also considered an A3
