So Ibiza have suspension issues, and Leon is the better choice...

Out of the list I saw above, I like the look of the fiesta s tdci now too, so I've got a few to pick from I think :)

Fiesta
Leon
Golf
Civic
Astra

what's your budget?

there's a Focus Zetec S too but I think it's pricey as it's quite new

Golf will carry a premium over Leon just for being VW

If I think of anymore I'll let you know! was doing this myself 3 years ago haha!

I'll prob look to spend around 4k, but I don't mind travelling to view a car, so should be able to get a decent one for that.. (I hope).

You said you're enjoying your motor didn't you?

Yeah I love the ibiza, but doing 120 miles a day with that suspension would drive me insane
They're very good cars and you won't beat them for value/equipment/reliability
I have also had 3 Ibiza... seems a common thing haha!

Exactly why I got rid of mine. As I've got older, I tend to opt for comfort over excitement lol, but as you said, good value.

They are ok engines. Not as torquey feeling as the VW groups tdis though. I find the 2.2s we have at work need revving to get them going. Apparently the clutches on the 2.2 civic deisel are rubbish - one of the civics in my work has a slipping clutch on a 59 plate and 46k on the clock

Blimey! Power and economical!

Just the clutch issue... I had a look on other websites/forums and they've said the same

Been looking around at the suggestions you guys made, and still really like the seat range.

Narrowed it down to either Fiesta Zetec S Tdci, Ibiza, Leon or fabia vrs...

Mpg seems to be very similar on all (58 average fiesta, 53 average Ibiza, 51 Leon and 51 fabia)...

ibiza over fabia because you don't get climate, and few other things
leon over ibiza because it's an every day loadsa mileage car

bye ford! :)
you'll get more than 53mpg out of an ibiza, that's what I got when I didn't even try!
