What fun car should I buy?
I have a Hyundai i30 N Line and a 2003 MG TF. I recently retired and do so many miles as I did and so am looking for one car to replace both, something fun like the MG but as practical and reliable as the Hyundai. Any suggestions?

How about the new MG 4? It's an electric hatchback that's great to drive without compromising on versatility. As an electric car with few moving components, it ought to be a very reliable choice, while MG's seven-year warranty should also put your mind at rest. You could also look at the Cupra Born - another fun-to-drive electric hatchback. If you don't fancy an electric car, a petrol Ford Focus, Mazda 3 or BMW 1 Series could be a good alternative.
If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.
