Good mumsy car

My mother currently has a 2000 audi TT, and she wants to ditch it as its getting old.

What cool new cars are there that are "cool" (for a woman) like the TT?

The only requirement that she says she needs is usable back seats, the TT was faar too small in the back and is another reason for the change.

No real budget as such, but cant be silly expensive. Just want some suggestions to bat at her and show her some pictures etc

Maz - those cars arnt really flashy enough if you see what i mean, especially the honda, has to have good presence like the TT does

Fox is pimping the E46 coupes to me, i am loving them too and i could potentially but it from her at a later date then, certainly worthy of a suggestion.

She also really likes the new mini's, whilst it wouldnt be my choice what do people think?

SLK? Boxster? 996 C2 Cab?

None are silly expensive

None have decent sized rear seats either

This is just screaming 3-series coupe, she might love the cabs too

The bini rear seats are a lot better than the TT ones!

I dont think an M3 is suitable, for a start they are £30k+, then we have the servicing and insurance etc, totally not worth it for her.

I am going to push for a 330 cabrio, failing that a 320 cabrio. But be open to the mini cooper s cabrio as she seems to love that
