I would be interested in my fellow car lovers feedback on this question.

I have had a SEAT Leon FR TDi for 6 years now, a few mods and running 200 Bhp and no major issues other than tyres and brakes. before that I had a SEAT Ibiza Cupra running around 220 Bhp and knacked one turbo, but no other major issues.

I swore that I would never have a diesel, but I have loved driving this derv, good performance and good MPG alongside cheaper insurance and car tax.

I now want to change and I don't think I could have a non turbo, but is it a Turbo or a TDi?

I have looked at Focus ST, SAAB 9-3 TTiD, Astra VXR, Renault Megane 225, Pug 207 GTi and a few others.

Anybody have any ideas any cars to look at around 7k and with 150 Bhp and above and can be modded without too much expense?

Thanks

I swore I would not have one of them as well, had a look at a few 530's but don't know enough about them
