Next car..?

[ginge191]

After the summer i'm considering selling up the megane. It's been incredible and will see me through the summer. 

Question is, next car...

I'm thinking of something a little more sensible, but still a little unique. My options are:

BMW 123d - OR 135i.

Volvo S40 T5

I have a realistic budget of ~£7k, but happy to keep some change from that.

I then started looking at SUV's and thought along the lines of 

Mspot X3 
XC90 D5


Any more ideas would be great.
