Hi

Had a Mk 7 GTD for 3.5 years as daily. Post covid less communiting so have had a JCW Mini as daily. Now looking for a GTI Clubsport 40 (manual and recaros). Dont seem to be many manuals around. Any leads appreciated. Live Oxfordshire/Warks border, happy to travel.

Any tips on things to look for when buying outside the usual?

Many thanks

Welcome Miles5!  :smiley:

I had a GTI 40 Clubsport a few years ago and can recommend one if you can find a cherished example.

I’d recommend posting up a thread in the mk7 section asking any questions you might have as there’s lots of experience in there. Not too much traffic heads to this part of the forum.
