Looking at buying a new car which will solely be used for business. It will cover aprox 25k a year and after 3years its mine for personal use or can sell it. It must be diesel, have 4doors, be smallish (no bigger than a focus) and in the region of £8-9k. It doesnt have to have lots of power (diesel lol) or be brand new, i would most prefer nearly-new with 10-15k on the clock. Which do you recomend?

golf is just an expensive heavy leon though. ive been looking at leons golfs and a3's and for the same money you can get a much newer leon. although i could get an x reg leon for the same money as i can get an s reg a3 im still gonna go for the a3 for the shear fact ive always wanted one.

Not another Corsa LOL. Yeah I was wanting a Leon, would be a mint car to style or perhaps a Focus. Do they do a Cupra in diesel? Guess I need to get some car brocures as ive got no knowledge on the car market lol! Dont want a Golf, too common and too brick-like! Do they do any nice Jap motors with good diesel lumps? Would be nice to have a jap car and my ickle euro'd corsa

matty that engine is total wank.
tomas, i have found a lot of tuning prospects for the vag 110bhp engine that will up to around 170 bhp or 160 if u only use a rechip.
