Ooops just seen this. I (finally) bought a 2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4 Diesel. Not the coolest car but it's cheap to run (£20 road tax) and good mpg so far (averaging 57ish for short trips).

I've tried plenty of stuff over the years (hard gainer, whey protien etc) in the end I just stick with unflavoured stuff from myprotien.com. Tastes of nothing and is easy to digest.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Fiesta is still top of the list. Will check out A2s, also considering a 1 series.

Also again I'm not interested in getting a Mini.

I repeat, I'm not interested in getting a Clio.

I've considered a 500, bit concerned it might be *too* small (I'm 6ft tall). Need to actually try one out though.

Don't really want a Clio though, had a few bad experiences in friends cars.
