Ok best clear up the thread title ...

Iam sure plenty of you don't use their pride and joy as a commuter if your very lucky ...

If you don't but have to get to work everyday and public transport isn't your thing you will prob have an average joe car for the commute or as we lovingly call them. "A shitter"

So what I wanna know is what bargain basement cars do people use ... The cheaper the better of course ...

What kinda mpg you getting , what it cost and how reliable is it etc etc

My girlfriend is consider this very purchase and taught it might be interesting to hear people's suggestions on the subject

Current things we looking at is a early polo gti ... 306 dturbo .... 106 gti
