any idea what sort of thing you're looking for? what size?

15k gives you a lot to choose from

Petrol or diesel? Presume you have to base it on list prices?

Don't really get much for £15k brand new going off list prices.

It's either a Top of the range Small car (corsa/Polo [can just get a gti]/ fiesta etc), or a bottom/mid range medium car with a decent sized engine 1.6/1.8 civic/golf/astra etc

With it being a company car does this mean you need 4 doors?

I would, do it on the sly!!! £500 for 40bhp, well worth it. get the sps3 controller and you can turn the remap on and off for warranty purposes!!!

Realistic option for me would be a mk5 astra cdti with best spec / as many options as i could get. You will be taxed on the C02 output so avoid hot hatches
