a friend of mine is after a car, she wrote off the previous one in April this year.
she has £4k to spend and wants a safe hatchback, relatively quick etc.
after seeing my ancient golf that refuses to die, she wants a golf and has been looking at the mk4 2.0 gti
(i laughed too..)
i recon for her that a tdi (130) would be better than the silly gti and that the 1.8 turbo gti would be too much hassle as she wont be interested in having the extra power.
i doubt a 130 tdi will fit in the budget, but thats the engine id like to get for her as ive had lot of those in the past and theyre better than the 115 (for a few reasons)
i suggested a Bora, its the same as a golf, has a boot and costs less.
do the foci fall into this catagory? (would have to be tdci). are they robust when they get to 150k miles also? how do the interiors wear?
cheers
