Thanks again Shane. So to sum up, you feel the supermini's like a Fabia, Fiesta, Polo etc are good enough for a trip to and from Wicklow - Donegal every weekend for example? I had it in my mind I needed a bigger car like a Kia Ceed, Ford Focus, Hyundai i30 etc. Or would these bigger cars be better if I could afford them. I dont want to go Diesel as I wont be doing these long journeys daily. Also, when looking for a car, what would you consider important? Engine Size? BHP? Mileage? Thanks again
