Think of the size and weight of a golf.
Think the power of a 1.4
I think you can guess its performance

no, it's worse, as the Golf weighs about the same as a small supertanker.

Dam, Work have offered me one as my next company car or a Seat Ibiza 1.9tdi FR 130bhp 6 speed.
I prefer the look of the Golf though.

Take the Ibiza or you'll be subjected to piss taking for as long as you have it. The 1.6 is dreadfully underpowered so bugger only knows how bad a 1.4 is
