Hi All




Looking for a fine balance between performance and economy.

2010+

Budget around £13k

MPG - 40+ on long journeys, 35+ on my commute (15-20miles one way)

Sat Nav, Parking sensors a must

Boot above 450L




Looking at

Audi A4 Avant 1.8 TFSI S Line

BMW 3 Series Touring

Merc C Class

SEAT Leon FR Estate




Anyone have opinions or experiences with the above?




Thanks in advance

It'll depend on how much Performance is a priority?

Performance wise I'd say a Mondeo or Octavia are where you should be looking.

2012 Titanium X Sport 63/81k 240bhp (these are a very good steer hard to find & come loaded with kit) not a fan of white though

2010 Octavia VRS 56K

Or if you decide to hell with the economy then there's always one of these:

2010 Insignia VXR 73k 320bhp

More Practical:

2014 Mazda 6 SE-L Nav 27k 145bhp

2013 320i Luxury 21k 185bhp
