I want a fast car (sub 6 second 0-60 and 150mph), that should also be fairly reliable. It needs to have 4 seats minimum for the rare occasion that the kids will be in it, and to look good.

I have owned a Fiat Coupe 20VT in the past, and may well end up getting another now, unless there are better options I am overlooking.

Thanks

TD

That's where my money would go if I were in your shoes. Starting to lose their chav image a little now. Not that you should care about image.

Something like this one, might be the answer.

Although in my heart I wanted more of a 2+2 like the Fiat Coupe.

I am thinking more seriously about turning to Japan for this purchase.

But should I go Impreza or Evo?

and what should I expect when owning either?

Sub 6 sec 0-60 which you will def not get in the vvtli. Kompressor im not so sure of. TBH the corrola is only good at picking up speed when above 6000rpm below that its weight holds it back.

FYI - if you want to shorten an autotrader link, just use this bit: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2010...

Then the whole world won't know where you live.
