Right, sold the Corsa a while ago now and am fed up borrowing my mum's corsa c about (plus now have the finances to look at a new car..). Been looking for quite a bit now and have a few in mind but not sure which one should tip the scales. I'm after something a bit modest performance wise (0-60 in under 11 seconds), have an insurance group of 10 or less and must have good styling as standard (dont want to be messing about with it really..). Car must also have the standardish stuff...ABS, PAS etc.
So....what are your opinions on the following? Which one should I go for? I've got about £8,500.I'd also be interested in hearing any other suggestions..
2001 Audi A3 1.6i (ins. group 9)
2000 Volkswagen Lupo 1.4i 16v Sport (ins. group 6)
2003 Citroen C2 VTR/GT (ins. group 6/7)
2003 Mazda 323 2.0 Sport (ins. group 9)
2001 Volkswagen Bora 1.6/1.9TDI/2.0 (ins group 6/7/7)
2002 SEAT Leon 1.9TDI SE (ins group 7)
2002 SEAT Ibiza 1.9TDI (ins group 8)
Any others?

Yep, I've been through enough cars this year just want to get this one right and keep it longer than 3 months... 
Yep like the Lupo, bit different (if a bit girl-racery)...but theres nothing wrong with camping it up a bit once in a while. Like the Lupo GTI too. Can imagine it slammed with some shiny Schmit Revolutions sitting under it.
