My wife has been driving for about a year now. She stole my Hyundai Coupe F2 Evo that Ive had from new but has decided it is time for a new car.

We have thought about every single car possible but cant seem to think of a replacement.

We've looked at Elises, VX220s, Imprezza, SLKs, Z3Ms even Boxsters but there is always a reason why we shouldnt get one.

Elise........I cant get in (6'3)
VX220.....I cant get out
Imprezza..Stigma of chavs driving them(sorry but its true)
Boxster....Budget only runs to a 2.5
SLK.........****e plastic interior
Z3M........Insurance mahoosive


When you think about the equipment thats provided in the Hyundai they tick all the boxes. Insurance is 400 quid, it delivers 30MPGs and I can get a 54 for less than 10k (2.7 V6)

Unless someone can come up with a good alternative she will be getting one of them in the next week.

Budget is between 8k and 12k at a push!!

I must admit i quite like the Hyundai and you cant argue against the warranty that you get with them. Not sure if it's your cup of tea, but have you considered a Volvo S60 T5.

You get a lot of car for what you pay.

I would love a Volvo but more along the lines of the C70 cab (for the wife) but they are a bit big.

If we were looking for a 4 door then she wouldnt have much choice......it would be an Octavia
