Owned this for a year and a half but due to vastly increased mileage and an imminent court case for driving offences I have to downgrade

Been considering a Civic Sport - but they are sooo slow or a Golf GT TDI as I dont want to spend any more than the value of the GSi. Any help??

A mate had a mk4 golf tdi wasn't amazing, all the reviews i have read all say the same thing about the 1.9tdi and thats is that the engine is very noisey and pretty slugish.

The PD lumps are sooo quiet actually.
The 130 and the 150's are very quick to be honest.

The other half has a GT TDi and its a brilliant car!
