Is a cheap Golf worth it?
I would like to buy a Golf, however my budget is very limited at £2000.
All that seems available for this price is a late 1990s model with reasonable mileage, or an early 2000 model with 100k+ mileage. First of all, is it worth investing and secondly, which would be the better investment?
Infact, is it worth it at all? Or should I be looking at an entirely different car on this small of a budget? (Need a car for mainly city and occasional motorway driving. 5 door as 2 young kids)

Don't believe the myth about Golfs, especially £2k Golfs.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
