Can you recommend a family car that will excite me?
I am going to be a dad for the first time and will be reluctantly selling my much-loved 2005 Honda Civic Type-R. So here's the question: what kind of used or new family car can I replace it with? I have a budget of around £10,000?
I want something that is exciting and fun to drive; it also needs to have a large boot and five doors. Is that possible on this budget? I have no idea where to start.

I'd recommend buying SEAT Leon 2.0 TFSI FR or Cupra.
