what golf

hi im about to buy a new car shortly and im keen on the golf as ive had them b4 i want to get a mk4 gti or tdi130 whats my best bet and honest opinion from experienced people what these are like my budget is 3-4 k thanks

 

for 3-4k you will be able to get a nice enough motor, 130 is arguably the best of the lot. A MK4 is a nice daily drive, never had much fun in one though tbh

 

fun?

 

Well thats not true, the R32 I went in was awesome, other MK4's I have actually driven are
1.8T, GT-TDI 110/150, 1.4 lol and they were all 'nice' cars, just never found them any fun to drive.

 

well i just want a reliable car that dont break down all the time hahahah

 

My mk4's great. Just an A->B car though. Is quite boring otherwise.
You won't get them cheap though.

Still, going by mine, it hardly ever goes wrong. Mine is covered in collision damage now (I'm a careless driver), so am looking to replace it before it starts rusting...

 

stuck on what mk4 golf

as u may already know im looking to buy a used mk4 golf? but im not sure which one i like the gt tdi but ive heard there expensive to repair etc is this true? or theres the 2.0 gti 115 bhp or the 1.8t gti out of the 3 which is the best not only the drive but also running and maintenace costs? cheers all any help would be appreciated

 

the diesel, avoid the 2.0 gti like the plague

 

what about the 1.8 turbo
