Decent car for the money but looks horrible.
I would consider Audi A4 size too if that helps..
Auris, the more modern example is in your price range

Another option is an Alfa GT 1.9 JTD
Are they as unreliable as everyone makes out?

Would only be a 1.6 VVTi though, they don't seem to do anything with a 1.8.

Anyone heard any horror stories about the Alfa GT?
It's a lot of car for the money.

But look at it!! 
I presume the diesel engine is the same as the diesel engine in the Fiat Punto etc?
They get decent reviews don't they?

For example the GT Alfa comes with dual zone air con and built in sat nav.

Yer that or civic
but for a nice laid back quick car the leon wins
Only time civic is better is when chucking it about and possibly reliability but the leons hardly going to be bad
Drives supercharged Tec with torque
