...And im not a fan :(
Been a while folks, i've been back and forth with lots of different cars (Ibiza Cupra's, MK5 GTI, Ford Focus Y Reg(!), Mk4 Golf GTI (hated it) & finally now, the Seat Leon FSI (2L non turbo).
Anyway, im bored again, and decided to look, ashamingly so, for the badge...So test drove an 07 plate 320d it was an M-Sport version, but I just couldn't get on that much with it, don't get me wrong, the engine is silent at speed, and is so refined, but I just felt the car was heavy, and the handling heavy, not to mention I HATED the gearbox, BMW gearboxes to me, seem like stirring porridge, I just don't like them.
So now im starting to look at the MK6 Golf, something like a 2L TDI 140 or 1.4 TSI, I can't quite justify or spend the money for a MK6 GTI
I did glance at Audi's but IMO the Golf looks so much nicer than the A3 when compared in 5 door guises.
So, am I insane for saying that about a BMW? The ultimate driving machine?!
