Hello just joined, Kent
« on: 10 June 2020, 22:12 »
Hello everyone,

I have been a long term golf fan having had a MK5 GT Tdi that I took to 160k, and the past two years owning a MK7 GTD which has been a fantastic car. My commuting mileage necessitated the GTD at the time even though I really wanted a GTI. Anyway fast forward two years and a change in job combined with pandemic arrangements means the mileage is no longer an issue.

Which brings me here, With the GTD now sold I’m now looking for a 3 door MK7 GTI PP....Anyone looking to sell?

I look forward to contributing where I can on the forum and getting some pointers when I do finally own a GTI.

Welcome Kent, hope you are successful on your quest.. you may struggle a little in the short term as others are finding supply is outstripping demand :shocked:
Even though my mileage has dropped quite a lot I think I will be sticking with my GTD for a while!

Hello and thanks for the welcome, you’re right there isn’t a great deal for sale at the moment, however I’m in no rush which is a nice position.

GTD is a fantastic car I really enjoyed it, however going from 18k per year to less than 10k means there’s some fun to be had! I’ve wanted a GTI for a long time but my commuting mileage prevented it on costs

Doesn’t seem very lively this forum from first impressions, or is it just me?? Or is it that Covid has quietened it down??

You'll get more response and a livelier discussion from the MK7 forum - http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?board=117.0

Most other sections will be less frequented.
