Possibly selling my Fabia Vrs But Need Help What Next?

Hi

I need a bigger car so unfortunatly it looks like my fabia vrs needs to go. Im looking to replace it with either a Octavia or dare I say It a Vauxhall Signum. Now Im looking at 06 plate cars and tbh the standard elegance just doesnt do it for me not sporty enough looks wise. I like the look of the sport however the lack of toys is not great for the money. Now the signum I think at least looks great and has plenty of toys and also can be brought for cheap! My biggest concern is the dreaded depreciation.

While on the subject what would you think is a reasonable trade in price

05 plate Black magic VRS 36K (mostly motorway) FSH with cruise control and Leather seats and door cards. Also been lowered but may return to standard. Car is in excellent condition.

Thanks for your time and sorry to bore the pants of you!

Mondeo ST TDCi....that's what I'll be getting me thinks. I want one.....

Depreciation on the Signum rules it out for me. I test drove the 2.2 petrol and thought everything about it was pants, and I really REALLY wanted to like it.

Ended up with the Passat in the end.

Mondeo ST TDCI would be a fine choice mind. Whats the budget?

Looking at upto £5K plus my car. Mondeo ST is nice but just not that keen. Ive spotted a real nice Signum with the VXR alloys in my local dealer Im gonna see what price I can get of him for mine and take it from there.

Looked at any of the MG cars? Cannot remember the name of the one similiar to the Rover 45/75.

MG ZT?

It's still just a Rover with a body kit!

The Signum isn't a very nice car to drive, there are far better cars around
