Comfortable combo up to 18k€?

Hello! I’ve been driving my first car for too long. A new purchase has been delayed time and again, as other things were more important, but now I want to do nails with heads. I want a combination of compact class. Likes with sliding roof, prefers red and German. No diesel, rides only 10tkm p.a. 100-130hp. Hand switch. Comfortable seats were important to me. I don’t like the Astra, swirl totally between the Focus and Golf. (all other Germans are anyway too expensive) Which engine w Are you always recommending? Which one is currently the most recommended vehicle? Thank you!
