I'm still here mate
I've still got my Ibiza for now. Haven't really had the time to strip all the mods off and look for a new car 
haha nah im on bout altechs. sorry didnt word it very well haha.
a BMW for me....i wish
I've been looking at BMW 330 diesels and petrols but I think I'm swaying towards a Golf MK4 R32. If I can get a decent insurance quote on the R32 then I'll most likely go for that. I'm just really indecisive atm
Woop!
Good lad! I've not looked back since buying my Mk4 R32. Awesome car, much nicer build than the Ibiza. Much better handling, 4wd is awesome, get a Non res Milltek and the sound will keep you entertained for ages and ages! Realistically you can get 350 miles to a tank, drive it hard and you'll get 250-300 miles to a tank. Which costs about £60 a tank. Well worth it though!

my mate has a 330d and its awesome, pulls brilliantly, i would have one over a mk4 golf tbh.
I wouldnt have a Mk4 Golf. I dont like them and would much rather have a Leon/Ibiza over a Golf. But the Mk4 R32 is a totally different car to a Mk4 Golf.

I'm not too bothered about fuel comsumption as I do not drive a lot of miles. It's just the insurance that bothers me! I haven't shopped around properly but a few quotes have come in at roughly £2000. I refuse to spend more than £1500 on insurance. Funnily enough the R32 is cheaper to insure than a 330cd which is 2 insurance groups lower.
The R32 is appealing to me more due to the fact that I'm nearly 23 and the BMW just seems a bit too grown up.
They arent that quick no. 0-60 in about 6.5 seconds. Not slow, but not WOW. I came from my hybrid Ibiza diesel to an R32 and yes it's not as manic etc, but it doesnt hang around when you want to go. Also, iirc, Altech lives in London and doesnt really get up to any decent speeds really - hence why he had a remap so late as the car didnt really get driven hard, because there wasnt the opportunity to do so. Correct me if I'm wrong Altech

I'm not so sure, my Ibiza only has a remap. Yeah it's quick but the torque makes it feel faster than it is. If the R32 feels slower I can always throw a supercharger or a couple of turbos under the bonnet

The R32 doesnt feel to pick up as quick, obviously because you havent got that instant punch of boost. And it's not as much "push back in your seat" power, but it does go well. The 4wd alone is worth having. Just for 1st gear flatting with no wheelspin
Even in the wet If you can afford the supercharger/turbo/twin turbo kits then good luck!
You're looking at the same price you pay for the car for these kits! Literally! Awesome when it's done though. Lambo chasers I've just got a Milltek non res cat back, Milltek sports cats and green cotton panel filter on mine and the Milltek alone has improved the drive/power and most of all, noise. Just with the full Milltek you can see 260-270bhp (dependant on the car, every car makes totally different power). Get a remap and some cams aswell, you'll be up around the 280-300bhp mark You know you want one......who wants a BMW anyway?
