Title: Links to reviews of GTI MK5
Post by: bullseye on 30 September 2005, 01:34
HI Guys,
After viewing the videos from the link below I picked up the phone, to place an order for my shiny new GTI.
Had the Car for one week now, no regrets....
Anybody thinking about any other motor should drive the new gti first. :grin:

Enjoy

I have taken it back to VW as the head lights where always on, Even though the car is an Import it was fixed on the spot with a computer gadgit, no charge
Other than that I think it rocks!
Did you get the dsg box?
Cheers
