So I've just sold my C70 T5, after inching the T5 itch - never want to do that again! 16mpg and 4 months of worrying what would go wrong next is too much!

I've had 4 Clio 172/182s, and have been looking at them again - I'm 29 with no kids, own home and a Fiancé that has her own car, so no need for anything family like!

I also started looking at Puma 1.7s, but think the rusty arches would annoy me as I like a clean car

I'm a mechanic so like to tinker, but with a wedding looming, don't want to HAVE to tinker, just to get to work!

So, any other recommendations in the sub £1500 bracket, for a decent hot hatch?

Thanks!

The problem I have with another 172/182 is a want the rarer colours - my last one was a Sunflower phase 1 which is one of the rarest, the one before was a Flame Red ph2

I ideally want a Racing Blue 182, but all outta my budget ATM!
