~£5K DD reasonable mpg
Looking for a daily driver, preferably petrol but will consider diesel.
Needs to be slightly driver focused
Cheers

... I do mainly short journeys, the oil burner wouldn't really work.
I do do runs to the coast when I (& the weather plays fair), and the prospect everytime of £80 in scooby fuel is getting too much

Thanks, you're usually good on car suggestions. I've been going round in circles trying to come up with something. Top of the running so far is the Fabia VRS (yes, diesel
) but haven't test driven one yet, although I can't find one bad word against them

They are very good. You can get them mapped and they have loads of torque plus still keep their economy.
I did think of a Civic 2.2 CDTi but it's slightly out of budget.
