Hi,
Currently, I own a 2006 mk5 golf gti, few little mods but it's a nice car to drive, fun but average mpg on my 20-mile commute is anything from 20-28mpg. It's costing £50-60 a week for the commute.
I have a higher paying job opportunity that's come up but the commute is 35-40 miles each way, which will double my fuel costs.
2 options, keep the gti which I do love and look at getting my bike licence and a nice KTM Duke 390 motorbike to help with the commute costs. Trade in the gti or our Audi A4 if I can get the wife to take the gti for school runs and look at getting something fast and fun but also gives decent mpg.
The budget will be up to £8k, not so fussed on age but I'd like something comfortable and looks smart but something that'll take a family in too.
330D/335D, Jag xf, Audi equivalent?
