Default Goodbye Smat Go-kart!

I've sold my smart turbo. To be honest I knew it was a passionate mistake the minute I bought it and now, 6 months later I can't repress my stupidity any longer.

For ***** sake! I've got two children, what was I thinking!

Anyway, wanting something still a bit pokey off the line I've been thinking about an Audi A3.

What do you reckon? Or would you suggest something else? Before answering, I got rid of my scoob because I can't afford £3k a year petrol! 40 miles per gallon suits me so bear that in mind

Leon FR TDI mate.
Cheaper than the the A3 but with the same engine and no doubt will be cheaper to insure

Thanks, but they're a little out of my price range of £4k

Should be able to pick up an 01/02 Merc A-Class for that money.

Not the quickest, but a bit classier than the standard fare (that sounds like someone I know ).

We replaced our Smart with a new Mini. Don't regret it for a minute - it's just as economical and has seats in the back!

And <wisper mode on> I reckon its faster round the twisties than my Scoob
