Calling all petrol heads - Find me a car!!!

[GlassJaw]

Bored of the classifieds so thought I'd seek inspiration here.

Budget £5,000

Sporty-ish
Can fit a mountain bike inside
Better than 35mpg
Less than 100,000 miles

Should be easy, right?

Skoda Octavia VRS diesel estate! Problem solved! Miami Blue is nice too!

you may have to settle for a saloon, estates seem a bit more more money. Still the back seat will go down I'm sure!

I've had an Alfa, it was the 156 V6 which is essentially the same car except for the engine. You'll not fit a bike in it and as Kev says they are a minefield. Had so much trouble with it but I loved it.
