Title: 2005 gti is it worth buying.
Post by: J4mes on 01 October 2019, 20:58

Hi All,

I’ve been offered a 2005 golf gti with 120k fsh and has many extras no leaks etc

But it has a rusty front wing and rust along the outer sill panel and rust on the front door kick plate.

Is this a major repair bill to remove the rust it’s priced at £2750 Ono

Only reason I’m interested is the service history and common faults have already been rectified.

Any advice appreciated.

There’s a grand maybe more repairing those issues and with there being so many on the market now buy one without the rusty wings  :smiley:
