Why dont you get yourself a wee project then Mav to fulfill this need...try and get one which needs a bit of tlc for say a grand or less then just fix it up as you go along...bit by bit...
That way you keep the T4...and get to do your thing with a Corsa...

I would try and go for ocacsional car if you can. Running costs are a killer, but its better than using an old three door as your family car.

Yep and with little nippers you dont want to compromise safety and the Volvo is up there with the best for safety...
That is what would be in my mind when I think what to go for...

You are right Willay though, I know what you are all saying..I was wanting something more 'fun' Not that the T4 ain't fun but, oh fuck I dunno..
Probably better to wait till next year when I can sell and maybe spend the cash on a Focus RS or Astra Gsi or something...

I know where this guy is coming from!!!!!! My cupra is quick but it hasn't got that fun factor!!!!!!!!
This guy needs a hot hatch!!!!!! Or why don't you get an evo4 or classic scooby, i hate them but tbh they are good for the money, plus they are 4 doors, and a fair bit more reliable than the saff, But i'd do anything not to go jap, thats why i'm getting a c20let corsa!!!!! I don't want to go jap!!!!
