Markie Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Hi all, Trying to find a replacment for the Megane dielsel daily driver. Getting a bit bored of looking now as I am really not sure what to get. I just start looking at something like a Reliant Robin and then end up looking at Ferrari's It's going to be the daily driver, so reliable and half decent running costs should be good, but average will do. Need to travel about 140 miles a day in the week. I also want performance and AWD - therefore I have been looking at A4's/EVO's and IMPREZZA's Evo's are out because of the stupid service intervals. Test drove an '07 WRX STI and it was okay. Bit raw maybe not for daily driving as much as the A4 but it does have the better performance and I kind of liked it. Any views or any other suggestions? I even looked at Skylines. I am useless at getting normal daily drivers. But the misses has said get what I want now which has really buggered me. PLEASE HELP!

grahamc Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 What about a plain WRX? Or an RS4, too much?? Budget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markie Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 The Leon AWD? Budget up to around 25k but would like it to be a lot lower WRX a lot slower than the STI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 The Leon AWD? Good point! Audi A4? Do you want economy or performance?? H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 25k?? I, personally would go for a R34, but the mileage might destroy the car and your wallet. Probably audi is the best bet, comfortable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I know it's RWD but the BMW 330d Coupe would be a lot of fun!! We have the 320d and it's a joy to drive and gets 50mpg! H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 Yeah I heard the 330d is quicker than a Type R aswel. Really wanted the AWD though for the bad weather. I think it would be safer for the misses having the 4WD and good brakes. Yeah 25k is top top of the pound scale. I agree through, having an R34 and then to put that milage on it would just be silly.
