I think the GTI is staying, it's her Mini they need rid of?
Crickey, reading OP too quickly. We had a new Mini Cooper in the family, they really live up to their naming convention, internally at least.
Ford Focus Cmax TDCI? Or car of similar ilk, very easy to get prams in and out of the boot, nice driving height for the misses. Mate had one which they completely abused, and other than being tatty (I don't think a panel didn't have a scrape) it soldiered on until they sold it at 140k.
