Don't consider that 328. We have a 520 2.2 and we have around 12mpg..

Can't you lease a car? My aunt has a '11 golf diesel, 50 pounds a week, and it's paid off in 3 years.. The new golf is not a bad car, it looks good, and I think it has about the same space as an evo.

Orrrrrr, get an older evo?

I think some people here are missing the point, my dad can't go for a sports car, neither does he want a bland econobox. (So no to the older Evo and Astra), thanks for the suggestions though, you never know with my dad.

What does everyone think of this?

http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C211619/

Bargain and good condition, good service history too


Also, Daniel, my dad leased the Citroen C5 he had before the Evo, and the Nissan Navara he had before that, I don't think it's a route he wants to go down again if I'm honest, and he won't be able to get many decent cars he'd like with his budget

List of cheap but fun cars:

Ford Fiesta RS Turbo

Ford Focus ST170

VW Golf R32

Audi S4 (chip, exhaust and filter will see 500bhp easy)

Subaru Legacy

Mazda 6 Sport

All of these are less than £2000
Should be a start

Some good suggestions, but I can't help but think you're missing the point slightly, he needs something that will return decent MPG. Also, in before "It's fine if you drive it sensibly", it's not, honest.

That said though, look at this

Value for money or what eh?

Well my dad got a new car today, he went for an Alfa Romeo 156, but he decided not to go for the V6 and instead he went for a Twin Spark purely for the benefit of extra MPG. His one is a 2001 X-reg with 74,000 miles and it's painted in fire black, got it with FSH and a year's MOT for £1525. Not a bad buy if I do say so myself, there's a few dings and marks on the body but mechnically it's brilliant and the interior is lovely. Photos soon, but in the mean time have this photo I nabbed off google which is basically identical
