Find a nice used MK 7 Golf. Bonus if you get a Wolfsburg produced model. You can have all the nice modern features of android auto physical controls, and radar cruise control, but without the constant monitoring. You can get it with faster engines or AWD if that’s your jam, or a diesel estate wagon if you live in the civilized side of the world. manual transmission avaliable too.
They’re a popular platform with a strong community, albeit weak water pumps, so budget it in. the trunk is a black hole to store your shit.
James May said it was the best car for being a car or something like that, Clarkson owned a bunch of gti’s as well.
