They are all very underpowered and as a result not very fuel efficient and terrible to drive.

Go for an Audi with the 1.8T engine. It will cost a few pennies more to tax but is way nicer to drive and probably just as good (or better) on fuel.

Some thing like this would be nicer and better value;

Though that mulitronic transmission is supposed to give a bit of trouble. Manual might be a safer bet.

Avoid the 1.4 golf...particularly horrible engine in an otherwise nice car.
