A polo is too small really, Looks like it will be tfsi then, i had a feeling it would be but thought i would just check with people before i make the decision, on a second look ive found a cupra  :party:

What about an R32?

Not quite sure she will be able to handle the immense power  :wink: besides she cant have a faster car than me  :P

Haha, no in serious i absoloutly love r32's but would be too expensive to run, its the tax thats the killer, i might look out for a 1.9 for her then and with the money left over could mod it up a bit to look nice

But it would give you an excuse to chauffeur her around a bit more :signLOL:.

I was thinking you might pick up a MK4 or MK5 under your budget.
