Hi, my car has several issues and it's tiring. I already repaired some stuff but it's starting to get worse and I think I need to change.
I'm looking for something newer (at least less than 25 years), reliable, with enough performance to be comfortable on the highway. I currently have a 1.8L i4 136ch, but with 1.4t it's not really great. I'm on a tight budget (maybe around 10-15k€) so german cars are something I try to keep distance with.
I've seen some models like the Toyota Celica, Yaris (which is pretty expensive for the newer ones), Honda Civic (not really my taste but since I don't have that much money I guess I shouldn't be looking for something I like), Mazda 3 MPS... But I don't know if those are worth, or if there are better alternatives.
What are your thoughts / what would you recommend ? Also I live in France so, maybe the price range / models availability can be different.
PS : sorry for my english
