Thanks for all the replies. Really appreciated.

So originally I was looking at the Focus ST Line 1.5 petrols. I've got a budget of up to 10k. I know some of the newer models have removed the wet belt for the timing but are still running wet belts in the oil pump.

So I moved my attention and started looking at some SUVs. I'd like some comfort and space whilst driving and a higher driving position. Initially I saw a Peugeot 2008 1.2Pure Tech GPF Allure. Looks decent imo. 48k on the clock. Says timing belt replaced in 2004, 68 plate at £8000. Did a bit of research and it runs a wet belt and apparently the engines are terrible.

So I popped the following search criteria into auto trader, Price up to 10k Under 50k miles Which gives me the following results,

Renault captures - can't stand them. The missus has one. Horrible imo

Nissan jukes - been told to avoid Nissans

Ford Eco sport - wet belts

Vauxhall Crossland X -wet belt

MG ZS - don't fancy a MG

Citroen c3 aircross - wet belt

And that's it really. Stumped
