Which fast Volkswagen Golf to buy next year?
If you were buying a fast Golf in 2015 and did about 20,000- to 25,000km a year would you have a Golf R, Golf GTI Performance or Golf GTD? Also, I have driven automatics for the last few years and like them, but would you have DSG or manual in these cars? I'm thinking GTI performance with DSG is a nice balance, as the R still has higher road tax and presumably insurance and performance that will only lose me my licence, while the GTD might be a little pedestrian.
Would value your opinion.

SEAT Leon, Kia cee'd or Hyundai i30?
Which is best: SEAT Leon, Kia cee'd or Hyundai i30? I am currently driving a 2012 SEAT Ibiza, but looking to change in 2015. Not sure of the three listed which one offers best value for money. Also whilst I do around 10,000- to 12,000 miles per year it's mostly urban and not stuck in traffic. I can't decide whether or not to go for diesel option as spec seems better in same.

Should I order a petrol engine for my new Audi A4?
If I ordered a new Audi A4 with a petrol engine, would I lose out much in two or three years time when I trade it in? My annual mileage is less than 8,000km.

Can you explain the thinking behind the APMP categories?
Who designated the categories for the APMP awards? Specifically, how did the Audi A3 end up as "family" car? What size family is that supposed to hold? How did the Mercedes-Benz C-Class end up as a "large" car? If that's large, what's the E-Class or S-Class? And how did the Outlander end up as "large" SUV? What does that make Land Cruiser, Land Rover Discovery/Sport/Range Rover, Audi Q7, BMW X5 etc?

I have €35,000 to spend on a sporty car...
If you had €35k to spend on a sporty car what would you buy? Doesn't necessarily need to be new, would go up to three years old, running costs wouldn't be that much of an issue but need to tolerable all the same, i.e. car tax < €1,000 a year.
