Need a new -work/kid shuttle- so peak hour traffic and weekend use. Need to transport kids to school. Hwy blap to work and back....don't wanna blow more than $15k on it.

Was thinking late Mk1 Golf Cabrio - wife might like that
Later model 1.8 Golf GTI, like a 91ish
Golf VR6
Or more recent Golf GL Cabrio

Trying to avoid buying run of the mill machine. Not hung up on Cabrio's though.

Not to 'into' Golfs, used to have a GTi16v years ago in the UK, but it was new, so was as you'd expect at the time.

So....all you water pumping Golfers ... given a target spend of 10-15k what's the best option???

-oh only really want a VW at this point-

Cheers
