Will be buying a new motor either this weekend or next and have narrowed it down to 2 cars..
I know it's a bit pointless me asking on here when you see the choices but think of the bigger picture people
Oh and this thread is devoted to Willay.
I like this...

Now i've had an Audi A3 turbo(1.8T)..2 astra's and a 106GTI.
I miss all these cars in loads of ways but i would have kept my astra if it was a 2L turbo.Clio is tempting though!

Hard choice between the Astra and Clio I must admit, but if you have a taste for turbo and want abit of space I'd be inclined to choose the Astra!

Yeah i here what your saying mate...
I do short journey's though and after experience turbo motors use loads of fuel even when driven slow were as the clio will do 35 mpg if i just go slow and when i wan't to use the power it's there.

Yeh mate had a coupe turbo before i went traveling; use to do a 52 mile daily round trip to uni and it really wasnt that bad one fuel. thought it was an all round nice car; didnt feel as powerfull as the type r and tbh the fuel consumption on the motorway wasnt as good as i thought

Interior is swaying me mate at the mo for the astra Heard the 2L turbo is a nice engine too.
Clio just has this appeal though.
