Hey folks,
in the market for a new car. Looking for something fast, fun, quality, reliable and also something where you don't get shafted in the service department. As I'm in my car loads, I'd like integrated bluetooth for my phone, and preferably a way of connecting my iPhone to the car too.
Currently on a Merc and previously had a BMW. Pretty expensive in the service department and i'm getting a bit bored with the merc.
Had a go in the new STI 330s and was pretty impressed with the drive, amazing accel, lovely grip and seemed like an all round solid car. I was offered a new scooby STI for £23k from Camelon. If I get a scooby, i'm intending on buying new but don't know if that's perhaps a stupid idea? I also see that the sedan version is coming out at some point in the near future, and don't know whether or not to hang off for that, but I'm thinking that this may not appear in the UK for some time. I'm looking to buy around September.
Other cars I'm considering are;
Honda Civic Type-R MUGEN 200
Golf R
Focus RS
Audi S3
Evo x 300/330(second hand though)
I do a lot of driving as I'm a musician and so fuel economy does play some part in my car choice. Any thoughts would be appreciated, or if you think perhaps there are other cars I should be looking at, feel free to enlighten me!
Cheers,
Tony
