The 'best' car on my company car list is a Golf GTD. What are the general opinions on this? I'm getting one for 4 days next weekend and quite looking forward to it. I currently drive a 320D.
It is a little smaller than I would ideally like but I couldn't bear 4 years in any of the blander alternatives (2.0 Octavia Elegance, 1.6 Passat SE, 1.6 Focus Titanium, A3 1.6 SE, 118D SE).
Nor do I want to take the cash alternative as I'd struggle to get anything better as the amount is pretty stingy, the car has to fit a number of criteria and I average 25000 miles per annum.
Bizarrely, the Octavia vRS isn't on the list as it's 'monthly lease cost', as calculated by the lease company, is too much, even though it is the cheaper car. Only saying that as it would be the first choice given the size and spec. and no doubt something all readers of this thread will suggest as a suitable alternative!
Thanks in advance!

Leasing initially looks attractive but on any of the lease websites, as soon as you put 25k PA in the model, the attractive headline figures suddenly increase quite a bit!
Not ruled out a vRS on a PCP or lease yet. I still have 4 months until my BMW goes back so will have to get off my bottom and get around the dealers.

In two minds about the GTD. As per my username, I am drawn to a vRS for the extra space. It would need to be a PCP or personal lease though.
I'm test driving an Octavia tomorrow and I've got a GTD all next weekend.
I would be £800 per year better off with a leased vRS than a co. GTD. Not a huge amount and easily wiped out with one small bump!
What would you all do? Or get a company Greenline and save the money to buy a 997 C2
