Well the VXR8 has finally been sold. Got pretty good money for it too.
Now comes the hard part of finding a "new" car. It sold A LOT faster than expected so i've had to rent a car for the week. So this week i am car hunting.
The difficult part is this :
Budget between £7-8k
MPG - as high as possible
CO2 - anything up to the £125 bracket
Also it cant be too smaller car, because im reaaaalllly tall.
Please help.. I thought i wanted a 118d Sport but for the money you can get a lot more for your money

Surely a more upmarket forum like pistonheads would be a more appropriate place for a thread like this?
