ello all, I am on the hunt for another car and as I don't know a load of models etc I was hoping some of you guys can help?
Please note im not looking to buy now, just starting to research
Currently im driving a vauxhall astra 1.6 estate (long story behind this one)
I am not a "boy racer" and hate the majority of supped up cars etc, esp the saxo!
My guess I am looking for the following:
Good mpt - My car does about 300 to a tank or more on motorways
4/5 door
nice inteiour
nice drive
smaller then an estate
cost less then 5k
relitivly good insurance cost - I pay over 1k currently and have no acidents
No older then 1999 MAX
I do quite a bit of motoroway and town driving so I need something with a comfortable drive
I like some of the little extras
centeral locking, electric windows and air con are a must haves
need a decent amount of room in the back and fold down seats would be nice.
Any ideas?

One thing, I know skoda had a awfull reputation back in the day due to faults etc, but whats it like these days? I can think of allot of skoda jokes
