which new car for the missus

charliesum · 09-06-2009, 05:14 PM

ok
I think its time I got the good lady a new set of wheels
she has at present a 53 plate tt coupe with 21k on it!
she only wants something nice to look at (never drives it as per mileage) BUT we
have a 10 yr old lad for which being dropped off at school is everything so what do we replace it with or do we just keep it
I have suggested clio cup 200 as it would be a similar price new for old
she likes s3 but to me way over priced
maybe a 135 coupe or golf gti
any ideas - she prefers manual
fyi she can't park for toffee and so big alloys just cost more fixing!

Get her an S3 mate - less ear ache and an easy life !

she does like the s3 very much.....
it must be able to seat at least 3 as sometimes she drives and we have a son
she doesnt like convertibles
its probably only going to do 4000 m per year but it must look good and go on the rare occassion she uses it!
also been wondering what sort of deals they will do on a 130 m sport
