New car suggestions
Currently have a Mini Cooper. Want something with a little more grunt but is fun to drive. Moving up a big hill but will use it to commute to Downtown Vancouver and locally. We drive a Sienna for long journeys.
Any suggestions appreciated. Ideally don't want to spend more that $25000 |

Fun. Cheap. Nominally 4 seats. Mustang convertible. Available in flavours from 300hp up and with a six speed box (although when you'd use 6th is a mystery). American, of course, and RWD, wronger than a wrong thing. A blast every day.

Forgot about the dogs, do I need a fun Hatchback?!
We have a greyhound and a whippet and routinely squish them into the Mustang. I have a seatbelt harness because a previous dog, a doodle, use to bound out at the traffic lights but these two are calmer. |
Re: New car suggestions
Get an update of your current- good enough room in the car for family, two and four legged and 142mph- not exactly a slouch- you would have to knock them down price-wise though- apologies that it is from the Daily Wail btw:unsure:

I have desires for a Fiat 500 Arbath, I have yet to drive one to see if I'd actually want one and I'd need to see how much room there is for the dogsters and work deliveries with the seats folded down. There isnt really much else out there at the moment that makes me want to switch my current car up. Did bid on a mini today but it was too spendy.

Hard to beat a Harley for torque and fun to drive, lots under $25k, you could even get a rain suit in there.

Re: New car suggestions
It's out of your price range by a factor of 2ish and as chav as they get but I really fancy a Ford Focus RS Ford Focus RS Reviews - Ford Focus RS Price, Photos, and Specs - Car and Driver . But then I did live in Essex for 14 years....
Aside from that, I'd go with dbd's suggestion! (That Car and Driver review is us where the price is $36k, in Canuckistan it's nearer $50k!) |
