£2500 Budget...
Any other suggestions other than these, anyone had any of these cars?
I will be 18 when I get one of these cars, so no more than a 1.9, got quoted at £1300 on a Seat Leon 1.9 TDI

Ford Fiesta 1.6 TDCI

Fiat Punto 1.9 MultiJet Diesel

Renault Clio 1.5dci 106 BHP

Seat Leon 1.9 TDI 2006+

Vauxhall Corsa 1.7 CDTI 2006+

Volkswagen Golf 2004+ 1.9 TDI

Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 JTD

Something with the pd vag engine, so most likely seat leon.

And before you moan that they look old you have to realize that quite literally everyone and their mum wants a cheap, modern diesel hatchback and that 2500 isn't much money when looking for reliable cars in a market segment with a lot of buyers.

Its also worth noting that 04 onwards pretty much only will get you an early design common rail diesel that will have quite a high likelihood of dropping expensive bills.

Long story short, with only 2500 quid and the requirement of being a diesel you need to put reliability first and image somewhere near the bottom of your list of priorities.
What about the 2006 model Seat Leon, priced at 2500-3000

I'm leaving myself with scope for decreasing subtleness which can be deployed during the course of the next 52 threads the OP will post in the next 7 months before he actually does anything (or decides to keep his Corsa).

I don't know where you can go from quadruple 'fk'.
Boring ...


Got a quote of £1300 on a Seat Leon 2006 1.9 TDI

Read reviews on 147 Alfa, poor handling especially in wet weather
Read reviews on 1.9 Punto Grande, a lot of things seem to go wrong with them

I do believe the 1.6 diesel isn't a good choice in such cars.
so which one do you recommend? and why isn't it a good choice.

I am reading all of your posts, but most of you are complaining so why would I even reply to you..

Please stop clogging up our forums with the same new thread over and over again.


Soltuion to your dilema: buy whatever one you want most. You're getting a small engined, slow shopping trolley - theres not much to discuss on them.
clogging up the forums ha, hardly

Have the schools kicked out early for Christmas or something?

OP, in the goodness knows how many other threads you've posted (someone has kindly done what I couldn't be bothered to do and list them!) on very similar subject grounds, you've received the advice you should need. Which you've chosen to ignore, which is fine. What is pissing people off is you returning to ask the same question, over and over, starting a new thread each time.

To quote "It gets boring".

With that, to quote, "Aahm ooot".
Haven't spoke about most of these cars which I have posted on my original post of this topic.
