Most important consideration

[obi_waynne]

What is your most important consideration when deciding what your next car should be?

I think 30-70mph acceleration and overall MPG are my biggest factors, next up is the handling of the car and then the look and feel of the finish.

how much welding needs doing.

i have never bought a good car, all mine have needed lots of work but as i only spend £500 max on each one.
what do i expect.

must be handling and performance, mpg doesnt get a look in.

performance
MPG
handling
and looks are in there somewhere

I know when I say MPG I'm not talking about 40+. I'm happy with lower MPG but it needs to be good in comparison to the power on offer.

IE: If an Impreza and Evo were similarly powered and performed but the Evo had 4mpg advantage I would take it over the Impreza.

Handling for me. It's got to be a joy to drive.

> Handling & Power (Can't stand gutless engines, but it doesn't have to be supercar fast)

> Toys inside. I like my cruise control, aircon/climate, auto/tiptronic, heated seats (etc)

> What it looks like. I'm a sucker for Saloons though

> MPG, as long as it returns 18+mpg average thats fine by me.
