Are small engines in the Volkswagen Golf any good?
Are Volkswagen's 1.0-litre petrol engines any good?

I rate this engine very highly. In fact, in my opinion. the 1.0 TSI 115PS is the best three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine there is. Very few reported faults. It also returns 50mpg: www.honestjohn.co.uk/realmpg/volkswagen/golf-2013

Is it normal for the engine to sound more like a diesel than petrol engine?
I'm thinking of buying either a Toyota Aygo or a Kia Picanto. The Aygo is small and cheaper than the Picanto 1.2 that I fancy. Which would be best please? I only do 4500 miles a year. Am I right to go...

Plenty of second-hand choice, excellent cabin quality, efficient petrol and diesel engines.
