10k budget - spec my friend a car

[-Mike-]

Hey,

My friend is looking at getting a sensible newish car. He doesn't do too many miles, currently has a golf tdi after selling his boxster S.

He's after as new a car as possible, somewhere around the 50k max mileage mark that isn't boring like a golf tdi and has some sort of niceness around it.

The car doesn't have to be family friendly or anything else. Just a nice drive, nice car.

Sorry I can't be more exact but I don't think even he knows what he wants, so open to suggestions.

Cheers

Ok....

Something reasonable to run (porsche was always going wrong), not done too many miles so that it has decent life left in it. I showed him a 2007 A3 TDI, he liked the look of it but open to suggestions of cars which fit the following -

Reasonably New
Not too slow
OK fuel economy
reasonable reliability
reasonable handling
Smallish car (a3 size perhaps)

I don't know what else you'd want to know. Can't get him to post here he doesn't use ocuk // forums.

That's what ran through my mind as well.

I think we should all just ignore this thread and tell his friend to come on here and post for himself.

I should have remembered from previous threads... what a stuck up sub forum this has become.....

Don't have BMW or petrol powa........ go someplace else..

No probs, I will

Cheers for all your errrm

Help.
