Wanted a Mini Cooper S...

Drove Mini and TT at Mini Dealer - TT nicer to drive
Compared the Mini and TT - TT was far nicer overall
TT less common (around here)

So I ended up buying the TT when the TT was in for warranty repairs, I got a Mini for 2 days and so glad I didn't buy one hated every minute of abusing its little arse

Corsa B 12v Envoy

1. Was looking for a car for two weeks () and getting fed up of Fiesta's with broken/poorly maintained engines.
2. It was in budget and a portion of chips cheap to insure.
3. I decided I'd only have a Corsa if it was a 12v.

Citroen Xsara Furio 1.8

1, Not too common (the 3 door version, with this engine and spec)
2, Cheap and you get a lot of car for the price (Power everything, air-con, its comfortable, good MPG)
3, Its 8 years old and despite being French its 99% reliable All thats ever gone wrong was the sump leaking.
