Thanks all.

I like something a bit different and none of those really give me ‘the fizz’, although they may be decent cars.

Will keep trawling the classifieds thumbup

If you are considering the GLA45 the CLA45 shooting brake is an attractive small AWD estate with an interesting engine.

My wife won’t go for an estate, otherwise I’d go for an RS6 frown

308 GTI might be worth a look as something that is a bit leftfield.

You'll need an RS7 then (or a divorce...)

Yes, my thoughts are a bit all over the place.

I usually have the next car carefully researched and planned, but this has caught me out.

Will set a budget and go and view some this weekend, to create a shortlist.
