Hi Sophie, Welcome to the forums. One thing I would say is what is your budget? Turbos are more expensive. I have an NA myself. For a decent turbo you need at least 9500 - 10000, you can get an NA for as little as 6000. I would recommend a hardtop if it is going to be your only car (for the winter). I would describe my NA as very raw (hard suspension - you will never forget your first pothole!). There is no power steering. There is a lot of noise in the cabin and it definitely a no-frills car. Everything said about the heater in this post is true - they are truly crap, but there are mods to improve them.The NA is nippy (0-60 in about 6 secs) but not as fast as the turbo (0-60 in about 5secs). I haven't been in a turbo but the NA is thrilling to drive. I've heard it said though that the turbo is a little more easy as a daily drive (softer suspension) but only marginally. Good luck with your search. thumbsup
