Hello and a warm welcome to you! :y

My opinion is the 3.0 or 3.2 facelift Elite is the best ;) ;)

Hello & Welcome  :y

Elite - for toys
MV6 - for handling.

If you want manual, 3.0 is the one, as 3.2 manuals were only available to the police, and have a spec to match  :'(

Welcome bud! :y

Go for a late, clean manual-boxed mini-facelift 2.5TD!
Getting quite rare now though. :D

How do & welcome to the OOF :y :y
What car you have depends on what you can afford & what you can afford to run ;)
I have a diesel, because i wanted a cheap runner, but my circumstances have changed recently :y
The future's quite different :)

Good afternoon and welcome, I think the V6s mentioned by the boy and girl racers above  ;) probably suit the car best....but DTi (later 4 cylinder diesel) is the most economical if that's what you need...and you're not in a hurry...

Hi Peter, Welcome to the OOF..  ;)

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.
