Post by: navmk4gti on 27 June 2012, 21:35

Are the fsi engines any good in the mk5s pref the gt fsi 2.0 or 1.6 fsi. Also are the 2.0 diesels any good?

Nothing special; the 1.6 will make you wish you'd bought the diesel and the 2.0 will make you think you should have bought the GTI  :laugh: :laugh:

How about a Leon with the diesel engine? More car for your money  :wink:
