Title: Want to buy this GTI - need advice 2L Petrol
Post by: philnumberone on 02 April 2024, 21:43

Hey there guys and gals, after a MK5 GTI and have this available locally.
Don’t have much (any) experience of these and it’s a while since I bought a second hand car.
This looks ok but not sure about any obvious pitfalls?

What do you think?

Hopefully this is ok to post.

Looking forward to becoming part of this GTI community once I’ve got my hands and feet on one.

Looks a clean enough car but it’s way overpriced

He’s got 6.5 on the windscreen but 5.5 on auto trader.
Checking the belt and air filter status with him. I’ve learned that much.
