Which warm hatch £4-6k

Hi all

Selling up my good pal S4 Avant 4.2 soon and need something that is going to cost less to run and be a bit more fun in the dynamics department

So, must haves

5 door practicality (2 year old and 1 on the way. Can't be faffing)

Fun. Not fast fun as I've had that with the Audi. Now time to get back to 150bhp ish but with a great chassis and great steering feel

Reasonably cheap to run. Bored of 18mpg now
Relatively new.

Other than that open to options.

Best I have found that fits the bill is a leggy focus 1.6 zetec 2011 although quick review said hardly fun??

And before anyone say mk5 golf got. Had one and didn't get on with it. Maybe it was the dsg and maybe it was too 'good (not great) in so many ways that is was just to, er, boring

Appreciate any real world experiences that may fit the bill

Thanks for posting. Anyone owned any if these and can vouch for them?

Is the Cupra basically the golf gti though?

The megane is a nice little option. Might look into that
