VW Golf is best built out of those IMO.

have you tried test driving some of these aforementioned vehicles? that will probably give you a better indication of build quality than anything else.

Seat ibiza cupra would be a better option than the golf, get an absolutely mint one for £6k. Insurance on them is much cheaper than the golf. What about a clio 172 / 182. will beat all the above in standard form probably, but obviously the turbo astra / golf / ibiza is very easily tuned and a remap of £500 will get you just over 200bhp in the ibiza / golf, not sure about the astra tbh.
