I'm not into the audis either, same stigma category as bmws, plus they're the young pretender, golf is the only way with a vag hatch.

Fiesta diesel, returns 60mpg, cheap insurance and tax.
Horrid car but cheap and reliable, if you want sporty then its never cheap :smiley:

its on my list but its hard to find a minter its either get a car now, or wait till jan when my years ncb "hopefully comes through" and ill be 21 so insurance will be cheaper, just insure a sh!tter and leave on the drive to save £ in running costs etc.
