2k-ish - What Car?
Discussion
Need to replace a Civic estate, was a VTi so 170hp?
Got about 2k to spend, has to have 4 seats/decent boot.
Want it to be fun, at least as fast ( or faster) , servicing and maintainence I do not mind/can do, but don't want anything that is poorly built/going to be unreliable!
Also the Civic had an factory-fitted LSD - anything fwd needs to have comparable handling etc.
Use/mileage is light so not too bothered by fuel consumption.
Thanks in advance!
Aside the 328i how about something like an A4 with the 1.8T lump http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2011...
Possibly an A3 as well? Although i think you would probably be better with the BMW...

Saab 9-3 HOT hatchback:
Approx. £2k - check
Four seats - check
Decent boot - check
Fast as your Civic - check
Well built - check
DIY maintenance - check (Haynes is your friend!)
Great handling - well, torque-steer can be fun too!
Here's an example - this is only 3-door but plenty of 5-doors out there too if that's your preference:

By the way, the pixellation problem can be sorted for about 50 quid...
