Just for driving on the road. If your daily commute includes climbing over boulders, there are few, if any, comparable vehicles at that price point!
A Golf Diesel will, however, probably seem extraordinarily luxurious compared to a Jeep Wrangler.
Truecar-dot-com says a *new* 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara goes for $34,100 in my zip code.
I have actually considered buying a Wrangler since I drive down to the beach daily to jog, but it's only a 12 minute drive. They do look cool and you can still buy them with manual transmissions. I'm not sure that I'd want to tackle a daily commute much longer than 12 minutes in one. But at least Wranglers don't depreciate too much if the rough edges drive you crazy.

That is the number I am seeing for two year olds with under 30K
