Welcome coffeecup Mike,
It would be helpful to know what you want from the car, the type of driving you do and what your car background is.
Off the cuff and if you’re in receipt of company car benefits (and have somewhere to charge it off-road) then I’d say an ID.3 in preference to a GTE so long as you can get used to the brakes and interior (1990’s Citroen Picssso cross bred with a VW Caddy inside).
If not then get a late model mk7(.5) GTI.
Or if buying new then it depends on what you can actually get your hands on in an acceptable amount of time.
No harm in trying out the GTE and deciding if it’s the right fit for you.
