Ive had to sell my A3 in order to convert it into two cars ! One a run around and the other for a 'better' or nicer car which is big enough for the wife and a 12mth old baby ( and all his stuff !!! ) The problem is that I have no idea whatsoever what to get. Would like it as new as pos and something that is a nice car to drive. I know I cant have it all for that much !! Any thoughts ?
I owe many thanks to free-easy-money.com !:beer:

    5k will buy you a very nice BMW 3-series, leaving a grand for a runabout. Beleive me you can get a decent runabout for a grand. I bought a R plate Fiat Brava for £600 and a N plate Seat Ibiza for £650. Both game me yeasr of good motoring each!! I still use the Seat for a daily 100 mile commute.
