thinking of getting a new car something abit quicker i like my focus atm but its just toooooooo slow anyone shed alight on these 3 which you think is best?
im after something quit nippy, good handling, reliable, and something comfy.

1st focus st170 this will be the 1 i would put money down on even has the full leather recaro inside

i kno some people say there not that good i kno its no civic type R.

2nd audi a3 1.8T drove 1 before (150bhp) felt nippy but could of done with more power i guess the turbo felt nice, great build ded quiet and im sure it will be reliable.

3rd seat ibiza curpa ive always wantted 1 of these and said to myself i would have 1, i havnt got a clue what they are like can anyone help?

help needed

Depends what you want really, I would say Cupra is more rare (not rare, but more rare) and the focus and audi blend in if left standard. You will get more for your money in the Ford

surley youve got that the wrong way round

The focus is one of the best handeling hatchbacks in its class, and faster than the audi

Focus ST170 out of all them, I drive one on a regular basis and they are very far from boring

Not lightening quick but onces going they have terrific midrange and handle

Mum's one has the full luxury pack with the limited eddition Recaros.

Audi...boring but well built

Ibiza....can bemade quixck but dont handle

Focus..fun, well put together (for a Ford) and rewarding to drive. Also has a wicked Getrag 6 speed box and these can be Turbo'd for not a lot of £££

I've got a golf GTi 1.8T pretty much the same as the A3, To be honest it feels good to drive quite nippy with the turbo etc but it's too heavy handles shit and slower than my 206 Gti - dont know how much better they are with remaps though

I'm driving an 07 Seat Ibiza 1.4 sport ATM, and honesty it handles rather well and is quite nippy for such a small engine, ( i stayed on the bumper of a 1.8 20v passat uphill to 85 last night anyway)

I Cant really comment on the ford but the Ibiza is the best out of them 3, There are other car's i would buy for that kind of money though
