Golf for me.. I got one. 05 GT TDI 140, had it about a year now. Think 13k is way too steep for a 55 reg, unless there's next to no miles on it. Paid 9k for mine with 52k mls on it October 09. GT's have most of the extras on them, a/c auto lights/wipers fogs etc standard, the highline's get all the toys... Dual climate pack and most have leather.
For the price you said I'd be wanting a GT TDI Sport 170 on 06/56. Economy.. Daily blast from Falkirk to Blantyre along the M8 it returns 59mpg on the way through and 54mpg on the way home.. ermm.. ![]() As for getting about in the snow... ![]() I had 18" alloys on when we got hit, 225/40/18 are not ideal! still managed to get out of here with chassis deep snow. Got stuck 2 days later when we got hit with even deeper falls tho ![]() Now back on the standard wheels till the winter is past ![]() |

3 door 1 Series does look nicer than the 5 door. But I'd still have the Golf over it.
However the 1 series are very popular at work with the company car drivers. Carparks full of the damn things.
