tbh, there's a list of cars, boring cars, people are stuck in the loop of buying these cars because anything decent scares them off.

these cars are:

Golf
Polo

Astra
Corsa

Focus
Fiesta

Leon
Ibiza

Some weird pattern here, usually the most common two cheapest cars the most common manufacturers make, they are boring, they get boring and they aren't worth spending out on to keep a decent standard.

How i feel

I don't know what 11 cars you have had, but bet they all around 5yrs old and about £5-6k

Whereas, two negatives make a positive:

Golf + Passat = Corrado

I'm not trying to slate anything, but just explaining why people get bored, everyone follows the same route and can't think outside the box.

might break, people say they do all the time, top gear say you can't complete a journey in one.

I'd play it safe and get the astra, CDTi would make sense as you get decent mpg and is "fast" enough, get the xp to set you apart from the rest really nice car for the money

At least my car has never broken down. My friend with an Alfa only used it twice when it worked.

ps. I'm not a fan of VAG either.

FWD is for retards
