Right... Fiesta goes back in a month or so. Can't be bothered buying then selling it, so will be on the hunt for a replacement soon. It was (and still is) a really fun car, but since I bought it my circumstances changed massively and nearly three hours driving the car daily started to grate on me a little bit. Not the cars fault - it's not made for commuting.
Anyway, criteria:
£10K max budget
No more than 40K miles (doing 17K miles a year so will rack up)
Something without a rock hard ride (again, 17K miles per year, needs to be bearable)
Five doors preferably
Focus - Mondeo sized
Probably diesel powered, but would prefer petrol - needs to do 40mpg ideally.
Has to maintain my interest, so a 1.6 diesel Golf is out.
Doesn't necessarily have to be hot-hatch-y (been there and done that a lot over the last few years and really fancy a change)
Go....
