Next year I get made redundant and get quite a nice payoff, so will have about £6k to spend on a new motor. It needs to be diesel, have 4 or 5 doors and preferably have a leather interior along with other nice things, and relatively low insurance. A hatchback is not essential. The good thing is prices are hopefully gonna bottom out by the time I am in a position to buy so I may be able to get something pretty good by then.
I have come up with these possibles:
Bora TDi 130 SE Highline or Sport (should get a 54 or 05 plate for that at the mo) is my first choice.
Golf Tdi 130, A3 TDi 5-door or A4 Tdi of some sorts could be possibles as well
I don't want an Octavia (think they look horrid) and am not impressed by the Seat Leon as it's too plasticky inside. Want to stay VAG if possible as I've been very impressed in 4 yrs of GTi ownership. Can't be modified too much (I will consider chipping
) as the missus may be learning to drive in it.
Any suggestions will be greatfully received
Ta v much, Mr B
