    What about a mk4 GTI? They're nice cars, they look great, few simple mods here and there and you'd still be well under your budget. Plus resale wouldn't be too bad I don't think, but maybe that's me being optimistic. I know if I could afford one I'd do it (only reason i didn't is cos I can't drive a turbo and i like my VR6 more anyways)!

    They only come in manual? and this may shock all on here but I need an auto.. I seriously cannot be bothered with a manual. I like to eat/drink while I drive so a manual is a no no for me. If i got one i'd always dread driving it.

    Sorry for a thread bump guys, hope you'll excuse me. I'm an inch from buying a used and worn 1.6l (AKL engine) Golf Mk4 with 5 speed manual transmission. How are those, in general? It's a MY99 so a really old car! You think the gearbox will give me headache?
