Best overall economic auto transmission car to drive.  German engineering is tops in my book.  The leather interior and control panel is all solid state of the art German craftsmanship.  It's a solid car.  It takes corners very well.  Turning radius is excellent and the overall performance grips the road.  

The sports package outfitted the car with sporty rims and spoiler detailing giving the car a finished look.  

Not the fastest but it still looks great, runs great and get's superb fuel mileage - a must in this day and age of ever increasing petrol prices.  The interior is spot on; it is functional and visually appealing at the same time (I forgot about the VW trademark purple/red dash...  nice touch).  I opted for the 115bhp version for the fact that it is a work commute car.  Not too concerned about the total performance package.  Still, I do get compliments on it.
