"Ok, looking for a new car."

Getting rid of my car soon and so I'm starting to look out for a new one.
Now, I quite like my cars and so do not want some cheep banger. At the moment I'm a little torn between a VW Lupo Gti, (I like it, so hush), or a Fiat Stilo.

I know Fiat have some problems, but a mate has a Stilo and he loves it. I can't have the 2.4 due to insurance but the 1.8 is perky enough.

The Lupo Gti seems like a great little car. Can pick a 3-year-old up for about just over 6k. It has VW build quality, insurance is not too bad, decent performance and it's a little unusual.

I will have about 6k to spend, so if you can make any suggestions, please do.

I know-I know. But you're ancient, hence why it cost you 20 old penies to run your wind-up car.

It's not a wind-up car, thank you very much. And you're just jealous because my insurance is less than £200 fully comp.

You'd personally reccomend a Smart?

You cut me, man. Look at my tagline.
Oh that's right. I went there.

"Cripple fight!"

Oh yeah and EB, I don't mean to offend, but that Lupo to me looks a bit on the feminine side.

It looks like the sister of the new Micra..

I wouldn't have, until I tried one.

This is the Roadster we're talking about here, not the little box thing.

I think it looks quite good actually. Not stunning, but good in an understated way. Plus it really does perform rather well.

I suppose I can't judge unless I try, but still, after watching the review on Top Gear I can't help but think about steering away from this little 'city motor'

It's automatic as well isn't it?

Get a CRX and use the rest of money to kit her out!

(why do people always want new)

But thats just me sorry

Semi, which is my only gripe. I hate automatics.
