$110K Budget, what european car?

[Rm2s]

Per subject line, I have a budget of $110K, what European car would you recommend?

 

Prefer 4/5 doors auto, hatch or sedan is fine.

[Eyke]

if can stretch a bit more, can try BMW 320.

[Rm2s]

BMW 320 is probably closer to 130K? Don't want to stretch too much.

[Roh96]

Add few more k for Golf GTI.

[Rm2s]

Thanks .....

 

GTI it shall be .. add to list.

[Kusje]

Shortlisted, Volvo S40/V50, VW Golf 1.4T/1.4 Twincharged, Passat 1.8T, Jetta, Merc B class, Audi A3,BMW 118, Mini Clubman etc.....

 

Some models listed here might require to stretch a little above ur budget, +$5K.

 

Still have Renault Laguna, Peugeot 407, Ford Mondeo etc

Can consider Fiat Bravo w/panaromic roof.

 

- Powerful (0-100, 8+ sec)

- Spacious interior

- Road tax of a 1.4L only

- Exclusivity

- Decent looks

- @ just under 100K, u'll have some $10K of spare change in your pocket

 

Or if you don't mind a car that is more commonly seen on the road, get the VW Golf GT.

Dun think Bravo currently avail in Sg with Auto Trans.
