I’m new here too.  Been looking for a car for about 2 years without knowing what I wanted.  Until now, I’ve always had Fords. 
Had looked at Golf R, but wasn’t particularly impressed with the understated styling and could never find an unmolested GTI with PP etc.
Anyway, walked round my local VW dealer and found a Mk7.5 GTI with 27,000 miles on a ’18plate.
Deal was done.
Impressed with the car.  Can’t understand why there’s no owners handbook, and I can’t get the handbook online against the chassis no.  I’m sure I’ll survive.

Very nice. Handbook / manuals are on eBay for about £20.00.

Hi all. Just wanted to introduce myself as a new member to your forum. I’ve had my 2019 mk7.5 Golf GTI PP for just over a year now and love it. I’ve previously owned a modified mk5 Golf GT TDI and a 9n Polo alongside my toy which is blue oval, RS related (that may be a swear word in here ha). My GTI is a daily and great all rounder. Car is a manual, 3 doors and has 19” Brescia wheels which I love. I found this forum whilst looking for guidance on dash rattles and thought it was worth signing up. Here’s a picture of my pride and joy:

Looks nice (but I’m biased) and welcome. Read your dash rattle post, hope you get it sorted👍

Thanks very much 😊 The dash rattle is driving me crazy, I’ve been too scared to start pulling the dash to bits for fear of breaking the gloss black trims but it’s coming to the point where I need to man up and dive into it now ha

Thanks for the welcome. As requested, this is my other pride and joy 😊 Both very different cars but love driving them both just as much as each other 👌🏻

Thanks for the pic, I do love a nice mk1 RS, so simply in shape, and the side profile is elegant with the large rear quarter window.


I know which one I would keep!  :laugh:

But to be fair to the Golf, in 10 years time the Golf mk7/7.5 will seem just as analogue as the RS compared to the modern tech.

Enjoy :wink:
