Recently returned to NZ, and I'm really struggling to find something to buy. I don't think my conditions are that out there, but maybe they are?
I want:
Fun to drive
2012+
At least 4 star safety rating
Up to 30k
Not massive
I was eyeing up a Mk7 Golf GTI, but I don't trust the DSG in them, and would almost count on a mechanical warranty saying the clutch packs are a consumable. Manuals are not common to come by.
F20 BMW M135i was looking good, but they have their own set of issues around VVT by the looks.
I previously had a 2010 Mazda 3 MPS which was a great car, but I've been there done that, and they are getting a bit long in the tooth.
I've got to be missing an obvious answer here??
