Well guys just landed my self a new job at my work place and i get a company car , cant be a renault :( only vw

Got £20,000 to spend any clues on whats good to get , no gti either.

The r27 clio has to go:( :( as it will never get used and the company will be used more , plus more money to spend on the 5 which will have to be finished soon.

So whats the best vw to get ???

Why not pop into VW and test drive a few? You're the one who'll have to drive it

Is it assigned directly to you and will it be on your tax allowance? Are you going to have personal use also? If yes to all that then it all depends on how much money you're willing to loose a month. I picked a polo bluemotion as that has the smallest impact on my pay packet but has enough features to make it comfortable. The people who orginally picked Land rovers, golf tdi's and what have you soon ended up wanting a polo in our situation.

there are loads of calculators online for working out the impact on your salary. Also look at what is considered personal use as some things you may not expect will be on there.

Company car is a great thing to have, I have had them for years but the government do try and penalise you for it so make a careful choice.

Jetta SE Bluemotion :niceone:

That's what I'd pick for a company car anyway.
