Here goes!
My Mrs does have a focus - Paddy failed to mention it is an ST which is around the same 0-60 as his 2.2 z4!
Secondly - I have not resigned myself to a family car - just with potential family will keep to the TT 225. And to be honest a very nice TT with many extras.

As far as the family car goes - the options i have been considering include the s4 and the 3 series touring sport. Yes they may be classed as family cars but they will go like stink and handle well.
So many things i could write!

Got 7k offered for the TT. Got to look at what i will need to spend to get the same luxury. Save the pennies time. At the end of the day still got a car that drives really well . Z4 not out of the question!
