Alfa Romeo Mito Cloverleaf... 150mph, unique, 40mpg, and the Top Gear cliche "you're not a true petrolhead until you've owned an Alfa".
Nice car, always wanted an Alfa. |

My list from when I passed to present day.......... Volvo 340  (C reg) Suzuki Swift (T reg) Citroen Saxo VTR (Y reg) Citroen Saxo VTS (Y reg) Honda Civic Type R (52 plate) Honda Civic Type R (05 plate) BMW 325i M Sport Coupe (09 plate) The Suzuki was brand new in 1999 and a faultless little car. The Saxo's were fucking crap and the VTS blew up. Both Type R's were awesome fun and nothing went wrong but I got abit long in the tooth for a hot hatch. Now have the BMW and love it. |

I'm currently driving a Y Reg Astra Sri which is about the best car I can afford to run. Likely to keep driving that until it starts costing too much to keep going.

Beware of the small print as a lot of cars require a large deposit & you can only do so many miles a year. The Mini needs quite a large deposit & they are looking into the qualafing requirements soon. |

Yeah it performs well considering the insurance group. Dunno what I'll get next, probably something expensive to run but hopefully by then I'll be mostly walking to work anyway. |

Yeah Ive done the research, the three cars Ive listed dont require a deposit, and with regards to mileage I only use the car for driving to work occasionally, going to the shops and driving to footy once a month |

Would go for the Mini, just for the reliability factor. Never buy a French car |
