Thanks for your help - buying a Jetta

I'm about to change my Volvo S40. I need space for two sets of golf clubs, and do not want a large car. All the medium sized cars of the past have grown and some of them are now huge.

Hatchbacks now fill the current medium class, but the boot space is too small. The only car I can find that fills the bill on all counts is the Volkswagen Jetta. Thanks to your objective and reasoned reporting, I have decided to buy one, and whilst used examples are not common, I've found the car I want at Motorpoint Derby.

think it will be a worthy successor to the Volvo, and I simply want to thank you for your unwitting help in choosing this car.
