Hi Folks - new here, so be gentle...
Looking at a company car, but money tight. Whittled it down to Golf Match Bluemotion Tech - but which engine? On my all-in-costs, the 1.6 is £30 per month less than the 2.0. I'm currently in a starship-miler 2001 Citroen C5 TD that might have been 90bhp one day in its past(!), but before then I had a 2007 170bhp Passat Estate, and before then a 2004 140bhp A3 DSG. Point is that anything would be an improvement, but will the 1.6 disappoint? Happy to spend the extra £30 per month for some smiles, but don't want to waste my money.
I do about 25000 miles a year, mostly motorways, but with a bit of A road thrown in - and a bit of city driving. Gut feeling is telling me that the 2.0 will be kinder with MPG when I want to push on a bit(?). Ofcourse I should drive one, but awkward with it being a fleet buy, and without a proper drive on a run-in motor, not sure it would really help. Any help from those that know would be much appreciated.
