Just bought my 3 door GT TDi today in reflex silver. Got a grand off list price too, so I was very happy.

Cant wait to pick it up next week. If I could afford it I would of liked 17" wheels, and perhaps leather seats as they did look nice in one of the test cars.  Guess I needed a better paid paper round eh?

Fell in love with the car on the test drive, grips the road like glue and the diesel is very fruity. All in all very happy, yeah interior could of been a little better but I can put up with it.

Anyone know if you can remove the stereo on the Mk V as I have a nice unit to put in mysellf?

Congratulations on your new purchase mate, good choice.

That new Mk5 diesel certainly moves, and the handling is a definite imrovement over the std Mk4!

The head unit should just come straight out and your new one drop straight in - just trying to think if you'll need a fascia adapter or if you'll be left with a standard din aperture - you'll be able to tell just be looking at it.

If you do, try www.autoleads.co.uk as they will no doubt carry it.

Lol i know this thread is pretty old now but im a noob  :grin:
I would say that the Golf looks best in Black, or Silver, though my 1st choise would be black.
I dont really like the red or white  :sad:
