I was chatting to a friend of mine last night about cars, she's just got a job a 160 mile round trip away from home and is going to need a new car for the journey. She's currently got a late 90's MX5 1.8 which is basically falling apart and she has to fill it up with fuel every 2 days. She loves it though and has been driving cars like that for years.
I took her out in my ibiza and she liked it. I suggested she look at SEAT diesels, maybe an FR Leon or perhaps Ibiza.
She needs economy and range for the long journey, she'd prefer auto or semi auto box and she likes sporty and a bit of poke but she doesn't have lots of money to spend having been out of full time employment for the last two years before getting this job. She's thinking 1 year or so old - she quite liked the looks of the VW Sirocco but it's too expensive. She likes the looks of my Ibiza but even that too her feels huge after the Mazda.
What spec/engine would you suggest for best value for money reliability and economy but with a bit of poke and style??
