The big what to buy thread
« on: 13 March 2011, 18:27 »
So, as some of you might have read, my R32 got written off last week; totalled by some stupid assed woman driver.  :cry:

Now, Im in the market for a new car but dont know what I fancy lol

Dont know if I want another Mk4, thinking more along the lines of Mk5 GTi or R32, or even maybe a diesel?
I want to stay VAG but really cant decide  :huh:

Ideas please!  :grin:

Seat Leon Cupras are nice. The Cupra TDI remaps well and has buckets of torque. And it's economical too  :smiley:

Get an A6 1.9 PD TDI 130.  Remap upto 170 and still get 55 + mpg.

Mk5 GTI is a nice choice and a step up from the mk4.
