Landed home with this tonight, was just what was required as the wife is due any day now, so thought a 3 door hot hatch would be ideal.
Bought it off a workmate, 2005 with 90k miles, but hasn't moved in about 6 months apparently. It has done 3,000 miles since the last MOT which has now expired, so first thing is to get a bit of test onto it.
It needs a hell of a clean as well, so will hopefully get round to that before junior arrives!
Had never driven a petrol mark 5 before, and always heard people raving about the GTi's, but could never understand the fuss, as the diesels, while comfortable and dependable, could never be called fun. This has totally suprised me, unreal how much "lighter" it feels over a diesel, and handles soo much better!
