Tesco cars are actually quite expensive all things considered. Out of them four choices the Golf probably has the better build qualiity and even if you get one slightly older than the others it'll probably still last longer. The flip side is you get less car for your money in the way of gadgets and spec. You can get alot for your money with Astra's but are hit and miss on reliability, we've got them as fleet cars where i work *he says munching his lunch hungrily in office while typing this* and they're ordinary, bone stiff ride and rock solid seats being my biggest gripes. Focus isnt a bad car by any stretch but i do think you need to get up to the 1.8 engine to get any sort of poke out of it.
Other options would be the Peugeot 308 with some bargains going at the moment, ive been 08-58 plates for around 5-6k, not a bad car, more comfortable than an Astra, bit quicker than an equivalent Focus and alot of the niggly issues of the 307 have been ironed out. I would steer clear of the new Fiesta as i think its very cheaply made and too expensive, nice to drive i suppose can be fun but i wouldnt buy one, the previous one lacked power quite badly especially in its diesel models, in fact Ford hasnt made a good Fiesta since the 1.25 Zetec mk4.
