BMW 130, golf GTI - new daily required
Discussion
Looking for any advice, help or knowledge from you guys on here. I'm looking at replacing my civic type r (ep3) with a new daily. I have around 7k to play with and the VW and BMW so far seem to be fitting the bill.
What are they like to live with day to day? I know they are quite different machines and engines but both seem good all rounders. I think I've considered most other option including the FN2, clio 200 but any other suggestions are welcome.
Only criteria is needs to be fun, reasonably fast and good for driving to and from work daily (40 miles). Also not too high running costs. Cheers.

and in my opinion a much nicer place to be than the 1 series. We considered a 130i too but I couldn't get over that drab lifeless interior. Cruise, highline computer, dual climate, auto everything, xenons and Edition 30 Pescara alloys. Bargain.
That 130i engine is an absolute peach though. I'd try both.
I paid £6200. My spec is;That 130i engine is an absolute peach though. I'd try both.
Electric memory heated seats
Bluetooth
Removable towbar
Puddle lights
Xenons
Pro logic stereo
Dual climate
All 130's hill assist
Fancy mirrors that tilt in reverse
IMO aluminium trim lifts the interior. The seats are good and the dash is perfectly laid out.
Absolutely try both. If you're near Bucks/Oxon LMK
