    I have a 2006 Renaultsport Clio 197 at the moment. Its shortly getting to the age where it will need a few (pricey) bits done to keep it on the road. I actually really like the car, its interesting/quick, practical, been utterly reliable, etc. but at the same time I fancy a change.

    I don't do much mileage, just over 10k miles last year so not too worried about fuel economy, although something more economical than the 28 mpg I get currently would be a plus.

    The trouble is that I'm struggling to find anything interesting that offers anything like the same package as the Clio. Some options I came across are:

    BMW Z4: Look great, RWD and meet most of the requirements but quite a bit less practical due to only having 2 seats and the tax can be a little expensive but thats not the end of the world

    Scirocco: In 2L petrol guise. Practical and pretty nice, interior is a bit more modern than most of the cars I'm looking at but not as interesting as the Z4 or the Clio:

    Anything suitable I've not considered?
