Forced into selling my P1 later this year in order to save up for a house deposit (no way on earth can save whilst paying p1 loan off, insurance + running).

So what on earth is a decent 4k ish car, diesel, looks good, reasonable insurance (anything less than 1200 will be reasonable lol) Not too concerned on the mileage as step-dad is a diesel mechanic.

Only reasonable car i can think of is an A3 Tdi 1.9 and i doubt i will get one of those for remotely 4k

Advice and comments please!

An A3 without the main dealers making you coffee when you turn up

The new audi A3 is due for release in the near future, do you think this might affect/reduce the prices of the current model?

Due to your limited budget the only cars I can think of would be Pug HDI 306's. Not sure if your budget will stretch to that but the Turbo D is a good car -if you must have diesel that is.

I always liked the 306 D Turbo's but lately the model has started to look pretty dated, not sure on it anymore!

The Octavia i actually thought of, but the **** taking from going to a Skoda from a P1 will be fairly nuts! :P

Anyone got any experience with Seat's? (cheap golf aint it?)
