Each to there own, but i wouldn't spend 10k on a golf. Why not pick yourself up an older one for around 4-5k. Build up your insurance bonus and get yourself something much nicer and fun. I'm sure there will be little difference between a 10k golf and a 4k golf, if you're only looking at the basic models.
If you want something fun to drive try looking at small petrol engined cars maybe, cheaper on insurance and still decent on fuel. My punto sporting might only have 85bhp, but it handles pretty well, returns roughly 40mpg and is very cheap to run. so far it's been reliable too. Only downside is it's not amazingly quick in a straight line. Not suggesting you look at these, just trying to outline the fact that outright power isn't everything if you want fun.
I have been tempted to get myself a clio 172 lately though for more speed. Fuel economy and insurance putting me off slightly.
