Small engine which is good for a new driver and their insurance, as for the price you can get GTi for that easy. As long as the car is in good condition all over I think it's a good price.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

If it's a munter, if it's a minter that's expensive but at least it's mint.
