Default New Car Advice

I'm after a new car but really don't know what to have. Was thinking STi with or without PPP or Evo but with a new job in the pipeline and travelling to and from it, an Evo would be in the garage every 7 wks (it's around 100 mile round trip commute)!!!

I've got around 15k to spend and currently drive a Leon Cupra. A guy at work has suggested a C32 AMG.....

Any suggestions would be more than welcome as will views on the Merc.

The car will have to be 4/5 door and seat 4 people just to muddy things even more.

why not look into the forester STI... if you intend to go into muddy places.. and a higher ride height.. while still having the STI power of a WRX

very bad MPG on the merc otherwise a very fast car (not sure about reliability)


Hows about a Impreza WRX wagon ?

Take my advice unless your loaded that sort of mileage will cripple you.

buy a runabout for work for a grand or so.

trust me it will pay for itself
