I've been tasked with helping the gf sort her next car.

Currently driving a mk6 Fiesta ST.

Things she'd like:

Heated windscreen (only available on ford isn't it?)
Leather/half leather seats
Decent headlights -? She says the headlights are crap on her current car.
small Hatchback
3dr
'sporty' looking
Bit of power
Petrol

Lets say a rough budget of 10k

The usual stuff came to mind - polo, swift, mini, Fiesta ST mk7, Golf, clio, megane, Pug...

Anything I'm missing? To be honest for the budget the new fiesta is probably the choice unless anyone has any other recommendations?
Fabia VRS and civic i think are 5 doors.
 
Mk7 probably the best choice. Headlights are still pretty dire though. Changing the bulbs helped a bit but still not amazing.
 
The abarth 500's look great fun little things

Can't see why a fiesta at with xenons would have particularly poor lights, or does st-3 in a fiesta still give you halogens?
 
You can get a mk5 SEAT Ibiza Cupra for that price. I think they have around 180 - 190bhp so should be plenty of power as well as being a nice drive and economical when required.
