Car to Relace Mini Cooper

[rdb85]

I am looking for something to replace my Mini Cooper. I would like a petrol as I don't do the millage. Also not too fused on a car, just want something reliable that will retain its value and that's a little different.

No mines a Gen 1 Mini. The new one is huge. I quite like Volvo C30 and I am a fan of a Golf GTI

Possibly they do look nice, I was thinking of something a little bigger. Also the A1 are rather expensive. Looked at a BMW 1 series but I am not sure whether to go for a petrol or diesel.

Budget is about 10,000. I don't do many miles so like a petrol. Just want something a bit different, reliable and holds its value.

The Alfa looks lovely, and I have not seen one of those before. I really do like the C30 only seen a 2.0 petrol. Not keen on Renault. But the Kia is quite tempting also.

I do like driving it, just looking for something different, bit bigger, and a bit more power.

No I don't think I will go for another Mini to be honest. I was also looking at a BMW 1 series M Sport 1.6 petrol. Not sure what they are like.
