Following a recent change in my job, I now find I need a car again. I was working in London, but my new role has me driving around the country somewhat more and quite honestly, a 12 year old Z4 is not ideal for this! I bought the Z4 for weekend fun, but it's become my daily, which was not in the plan.
I would like something with a bit of performance - as I am used to the 250BHP that the Z4 has and can get a good lease price on a 310 BHP Golf R.
So far as I can tell, the Golf R is basically the same running gear as the more expensive Audi S3. I like VWs and had a Passatt as my last company car. I now get £700 per month as a car allowance, so there's plenty of choice for the money.
Alternatives might be a BMW M2, one of the faster Mercs, a Jaguar F type or possibly a Mustang. Not worried about fuel costs as I get those covered, but insurance and servicing will be down to me.
Any suggestions or real life experience of any of these? I don't need a load lugger, just something that will eat up the motorway miles with more comfort than my rock hard, noisy Z4!
Thanks in advance. |
