Hi,

I after a practical 4 door car with a big boot size/good rear legroom that is classed as fast/sporty from late 2009 reg onwards. Preferably petrol automatic and preferably a smaller engine so engine can get warmer quicker for cold starts for city driving needed for a quicker better MPG. Looking for the best true cold temps MPG fast/sports cars. None of that 5 litre V8 stuff that will take forever to get warm on UK roads causing unnecessary engine wear/reliability issues. Also be under the insurance radar such as not involved as much in insurance statistics and in lower insurance groups will be a bonus. Spare parts are easy to get not rare/expensive and preferably cheap to run servicing and maintenance.

Which component is more reliable and better: turbo chargers or superchargers required for smaller engines?

Finally suspension is not too firm but liveable for uk roads and preferably rear wheel drive.

Or are there any normal cars out there that doesnt have a sports/fast badge on it that can do 0-60mph in under 7 secs and top speed of more than 140mph?

Sort of like a fun practical commuter car you know what I mean.

Budget? Also most cars warm up pretty quickly these days so big or small engines warm up will be similar so don't dismiss anything just yet.
