What are the alternatives to the Golf diesel?

What should I replace my 2010 Volkswagen Gold 1.6 diesel with? I drive 15,000 miles a year and want a good looking automatic that is quick and fun. I have £15,000 plus my Golf to trade.

If they'll let you have a Mazda 3 2.2 Skyactiv D SE-L Nav auto for your money and your car, get it.
