but the thing is im unsure what to go for next....
needs to be....
4 door

ive been looking for a Bora TDi but am struggling to find one in my price range thats not got 10million miles on clock!
so been looking at the VW passat..... posibbly a 1.8 20valve turbo sport (checked insurance and for me and loz its 650 fully)

id spend more on the initial car and then worry about modifing later..if you buy something in worse condition then you have to spend the cash you were modifing with on repairing it!
As stated Bora, Passat, Octavia
Not sure about volvos
dare i say a Mondeo or a Vectra?
Or if you know whats best for you you will look for a Primera/Corolla/Impreza/Accord - Once you have had French..you'll come straight back to jap
