Im feeling that i may be needing something larger than clio before long

less rear leg room than the corsa, 5 adults isnt an option really

mk4 Astra Gsi, Civic Type R, Mk4 Golf Gti, etc are what im feeling

mk4 golf gti, i never really rated them, nowi have one and its ace.

bora is a good option too, bit bigger bit slower engine sits the other way, but still and awesome car, fully loaded with all te extras, cheaper than the golf by a long shot too! 6k will get a nice face lifted one. b5.5??
