Right guys apologies for all my previous posts for which car etc but I have just received my long awaited letter confimring my compnay car
Therefore i need to place my order by choosing off our list. There are 189 cars on list the short list is
120d MSport with optional 18's, lemon leather xexons and japan red colour
A4 Sline 140 TDI - no other optional extras in solid red
Golf GTI - optioanl 18's in red
Golf GT DSG 170 - no optional extras
Seat Leon FR FSI T
Outsider is Mazda 3 MPS 265 BHP jobbie
As a result my TT is for sale but really unsure which to go for. Obviously i will test drive them all but I would appreciate opinions
BMW is winning in my head at the moment for some reason

private miles myself, business miles the compnay, based on a percentage of monthly milage and money put on a fuel card
Because of diesel is favoured but you only live once

The Mazda is really good fun, if you get one get the one with the aero pack as there are two options.
Like corb said, are you getting a mainenance package and who has to pay for fuel?

no maintenance etc
milage works like this
say i did 2000 miles in a month and 1000 were business. I used £200 of fuel
I would pay £100 as 50% are private miles
Just an example

1 series is probably the shittest out of the bunch.
Audi, the 2 golfs and the mazda are all cool cars, just depends what you want.

I'd have to say the Golf as well I have one and it's an incredible machine! Even more so with a decent remap!
I'm in the same boat as you too as i'm not sure if i want a diesel. I've had company cars for 11 years now and never once had a diesel. Not sure how I managed it but still!
Your short list looks a lot like the one i have infront of me too, but I have to say it all depends on your circumstance. I need a 5 door as well my girlfriend has 2 children. We already have the 3dr Gti so I choose to have a 5 door as work pay for all my fuel.
My choice would be the Golf or the Leon. Both use a great engine, that with £500 thrown at it, can be remapped to about 250bhp and 270lb/ft!
Hope this helps!

Clearly never driven a 120d M-Sport then
Personally, I would opt for the Golf GTi, then the A4.
