    I'd say an S600, preferably a long wheelbase model.

    It depends what you want it for. A to B, one person driving, moving a family? What's your budget? What's your commute like?

    It has to be the Bravo TJET 1.4 150bhp.

    Not very easy to find. Friend of mine recently bought 07 for less than 5k, the only problem is it was 1.4 non turbo, drove it and it is as slow as Punto, maybe even slower. Car looks great - nice 17" wheels, sport seats etc, but very sluggish. He was looking at t-jets at that time, but only few up for sale, and none of them anywhere close to Dublin. Nicely built car tough, if you are not scared of Fiats.

    Yes,the 90 bhp is underpowered,i drove one before i bought my 150 TJET.
    There is a lot of kit in the bravo though especially the sports models except for course cruise control which is standard in the UK.
    The diesel 1.9 has no DPF and is also a sought after car.
