Default New car surgestions please

just sold the evo and was going to save a bit and get a e46 m3 but decieded aginst putting myself in debt to get one with the way the country is going so just going to use the 5K i got for my evo but not sure what to get, it must be

1. sporty
2. enough room for the kids
3. my Mrs must be able to drive it
4. not really old
5. going to used as a everyday car

I been thinking about a Renault sport megane, anyone had any dealings with them ? I know they got Brembo's and really good handling

Mondeo ST220 are pretty tidy, although a mapped ST TDCi would give far more mpg and still decent performance.

An EP3 Civic Type R would be my choice for cŁ5k and your requirement of being 'newer' too though.


Cheers,
Grant
