Haha! im considering a 106gti for next car going from a 1.4 corsa sport
BUT... what else is any better for the money...has to be a fast one insurance isnt that much of the deal as its looking cheap for most things like...wont be for another year but wanna look into getting the best car for my money and the choice has to be right...might get sooner rather than later...
I want something fun...small...well nothing big, what do VAG offer for that price range?

Polo GTi is 125bhp and 9.4 0-60 according to www.letstorquebhp.com
As for the Lupo GTi they're fecking expensive really... I love them but they seem to hold their value really well... probably because they're rare?
