Weekend home driver (Ö.) is looking for used car around ~10k, size category golf

Servus! I’m an Austrian and I’ve been busy in Germany for a while. By the middle of the year this could change, or I’m still another 5 years in Germany (that’s not clear yet). Anyway, my loyal (original) Opel is “died” and now a new purchase is due, with the option to “export” to Austria in about 4 months. “Technically” I have no idea of cars, so I ask you for your help. My distance amounts to about 350 km per direction, times two a The budget amounts to about € 10,000 and “desirable size” approx. the order of the golf -> so no combo, 5 doorr must be but. Too many PS should not be (for the purpose of the additional costs), but too few also not (drive after all a lot of highway and country road… I should not clap in either) A personal wish would be the cruise, everything else is a bonus! Do you have there recommendations in which direction I could look there? Have currently found some Seat Leon / Ibiza but scare something back from the whole exhaust scandal drama….
