looks fab, who'd pick a golf over one of these?
Or a 1 series, or an A3 - plenty of people will fancy one as a company car.I have to admit after having a look round one of these in person its actually quite a smart looking little thing. Reminds me a bit of the E60 5-series which looked bulbous and hideous in the initial pictures but the design works surprisingly well on the road. I guess that means it should age well but we'll see.

Or a 1 series, or an A3 - plenty of people will fancy one as a company car.Looking at a Manual C180 Sport ~£28k, so no decrease in the BIK for me over my A4 really.
There is no room in the back, the boot has a funny shape so loading could be a pain, the screen on the dash is horriblet. It looks like an ebay £50 android tablet, but worse, tacked on as an afterthought. I REALLY wanted to like it, but I can't justify the looks over the spec of the Golf.
I also viewed a Golf GT 1.4tfsi DSG - better spec, adaptive cruise £~25k, room in the back, liked the design of the dash better, it has the gearbox I want.
I'm going for the golf - the merc looks lovely but I couldn't live with it. I think that crappy screen, and the price:spec ratio will be a dealbreaker for many
