I work in the City and my car stays sat on my driveway all week. It only gets used when I take a trip to the supermarket or when I jump on the motorway to see family in Southend.
I drive a 2007 2L Focus and I absolutely love it. The 2L helps it accelerate rapidly to 70mph and the car flies on the motorway. Now, road tax is over £300 and the 'combined' mpg is 35.
I am thinking of getting a newer car and have eyes on a 2010 Audi A3 hatchback ( £165 + 43mpg )and a 2010 BMW 318i business edition ( £205 + 43mpg ). Both are around the £5k mark.
Now, there are some things you should know about me. I have an automatic only license and I cannot do parallel parking. I learnt it with great effort before I passed but I prefer not to do in a residential street as a car comes up behind me and I take too long.
Should I get the Audi or the BMW? And, is either the same size as my Focus?
