  • Help us pick a new car

    I am keeping my DS3 but my wife wants to change hers. She will not buy a Cactus despite weeks of me trying
    So - four doors, bit bigger than her Fiesta. Budget is about £20k new bearing in mind most new cars can be well discounted from book price.
    Useful for holidays and transporting friends about.
    Must have some style about it and not be boring.

    Ideas please.

    So that rules out the Ford's then ?

    Test your haggling skills and see if you can get a Q3 for that price - http://www.audi.co.uk/new-cars/q3/q3.html ?

            I don't know! All black with perhaps a red colour combination may look good on the eye JB.

              New 208/308? I think the 208s have the same engines as you can get in a DS3, not sure about the 308 though.

              I test drove a 208 about 6 months before I got my DS3 and it was quite nice
              Current: DS 3 Performance, Perla Nera Black with Sparkly Purple roof
              Previous: DS3 DStyle 120 VTi, Perla Nera Black with Fuchsia roof

                    Cactus ticks all those boxes, drives lovely as well.

                      I would suggest DS4 but if the space on the rear is too tight then C4 Flair.

                          A new well specced DS5 for around £20k - even less likely

                            What's the objection to Cactus JB?

                              Im thinking Fiat 500X. Pretty decent spec on this plus the colour is really nice.
