I would go with the VW. I like the bigger size most of all compared to the Cruze. Definitely don't pull that discount card out until the negotiations are 100% completed. Read the fine print on it as well, make sure there are no issues/surprises there.
The older generations may be harder to re-educate than newly educating the younger generations. 97% less sulfur than other fuels was an interesting fact. My dad had a service shop for years and has mentioned how much diesels have changed over the years. He could not stand them before.
The heavy body is one of the biggest killers, these things are tanks! My friends dad had one and we would pull their old huge boat with it. That thing was a beast... But is dad spend tons of time working on it...
There would be a ton of paperwork and hassle bringing one of those over here. Stay in the US like the others have said. If I were picking one though I would go with the Civic Diesel...
$350 for 4. WOW great price, around here they go for 120 a tire.
I have always bought Michelin, cost more but tries are an area I don't like to discount shop on.

I would go for the Golf TDI in a heart beat, just like the one in this video.... There's one near here, loaded, different color for $24,253 - I assume some wiggle room.
I cannot imagine having a vehicle that new and having so many issues with it. Smart to trade it, can you imagine how much worse the issue will get as it ages. My 2nd new car, a Sonata ran great up to the 50k mile mark. Then it had several issues with the heads and so on. It was in the shop...
It does look quite a bit like the VW Amarok, the well well/qtr panels very different, but the rest the same style. Next will Ford and Toyota do something similar?
Replace that belt right away, it should not be that difficult looking at the position. Your timing belt should be good for quite awhile of the previous owner had it replaced.
Opti-Lube would have probably been a small fish in a much larger pond. The AAPEX show is more for businesses looking for new products to either sell or use. Good for them to expand their reach. The largest number of attendees were from auto supply companies.
Problem for them is the store...
I stopped coasting in neutral long ago, I had heard it can cause issues.. However over time K2 said I realized there is no really good conclusive data on whether or not it causes issues or not.
