I have never driven a polo gti - i hear they are nippy but not so good on cornering - i know the build quality is good but any one had experiences?

i would say a toss up between the glanza or the 106. Glanza's will be a bit tatty at £4k though, and i'd have a 106 over the GTT.

No way abit tatty for £4k. You should see my mates minter and all the extra's he got for that price. Imports come over and are alot more cared for than UK cars.

Not if you look around hard enough. £4k got him a freshly imported starlet, jap lightweight alloys, tein suspension, bucket seats, HKS full exhaust system, Apexi induction kit and a Boost gauge. The thing is so clean as well. I am extremely jealous!
