Had the Corsa two years now and for the money i have spent on her i would like to track her for this summer.
That being the case i need a new car. i have bee looking at golfs but for the money im unsure.
I want something classy but dont want to loose the fun from the corsa if you know what i mean?
Any suggestions chaps?

Not underpowered as what people make out, but im not saying that they are a rocket ship (140bhp). And yes not good on fuel, probs see 25 mpg tops??

This was the plan, a 130 remapped with a anni bodykit and rs4 alloys.
But the dervs still go for a fair wack. Been told to leave the dervs and get a petrol but im sure insurance will rape me on a Gti

not impossible to find, just most have moon mileage.
My mate offered me his mk4 gt tdi for 2k, it has high mileage, but it's a lovely car to drive and got £'s of mods done to it, certainly not impossible to get a mk4 for 2k

You laugh but I only got 900 quid more for mine, you'd probably get an earlier one with highish miles (dont be put off) for 2k.

Thing is id be willing to go over slightly if i get a low mileage one. surely they work out cheaper fixing them. otherwise what would be the point?
Where should my limit be on miles coling if i was to get a high miler golf? really love the 3 doors with anni parts

My Mk3 Ibiza is basically a Golf. Id imagine it would be the same to drive near enough. Very good cars, just dull and boring though.
