Thinking of leasing a car and selling the Golf R32 as the Astra will be ready soon!!

But what do I get?? I don't want anything flash (expensive) or performance like, just something that isn't a hairdressers car, got a ok boot, looks good and is a bit of fun big grin

Determined not to buy one of those! Everyone and their dog has one...

Thought the Fiat Punto EVO looked quite fun.

If your thinking of leasing then you can have anything.

I would say list ten things that you want from the car, rule out any makes you don't want then go take some test drive...

Not a fan of fiats, what about volvo c30, golf, astra etc etc

Yes and not that great inside, more design over function

the punto is a belting car, but i perfer the prefacelift one.
the new 3dr astra is coming out soon if you can hang on a bit, its a stunning car.

or the alfa mito or gulietta are also worth a look. especially the gulietta cloverleaf in white Cool
