Title: GTI Love....
Post by: GolfTi on 11 May 2018, 22:58: Some issues and a few complaints as you’d expect but is anyone still loving their GTI?

I am.

Post by: Watts on 11 May 2018, 23:23: Yup, loving mine too :smiley:

Looks great, goes really well, comfortable and most importantly, FUN! Plus I'm enjoying 'fiddling' with it, modifying and keeping it looking good. Michelin tyres have transformed the ride, realised today that I haven't had any tramping since I got rid of the Pirellis. Been mostly issue and complaint free :smiley:

Totally agree, best thing I ever did was to replace the P Zero's with PS4S's...

Post by: andy28 on 12 May 2018, 08:09: Loving mine too GolfTi! It strikes the perfect balance for me between fun and sensible. 40mpg on my morning commute (quite a bit less on my way home haha!)

It sounds like I'll be putting Michelins on when the Pzeros come off though.

Post by: dubber36 on 12 May 2018, 13:29: I've had mine for nearly 10 years, and whilst I sometimes wonder why I still have it. I know I'd miss it if it was gone.

Post by: P6GTD on 12 May 2018, 13:51: My third GTI. Love it and totally faultless after 12k miles from new 3/17.
This car is amongst the last of the 7s in Reflex Silver.
Stunning to look at as the angles and curves are all accentuated in most lights, day and night.
Really surprised how rare a choice this was!
A smile a mile for me.

Post by: Jim_mk7.5 on 12 May 2018, 17:25: My first GTI and love it! Great car for daily use, and deceptively fast on the right road. Off to Wales next weekend for some driving.. mine will be least powerful of out the 4 (RS6, XKR and a 991.2 Targa GTS!) but expecting it to be a lot of fun round the Brecons :smiley:

I'm still in denial...

Post by: carlt69 on 15 May 2018, 20:16: My first GTi, and I’ve only had it since Saturday but I’m loving it, it’s a whole world apart from any of my GTD’s.

I have a tungsten silver and I thought I wouldn’t like it but it looks look vey in the metal and the amount of people I’ve had comment on how nice it is has amazed me. :thumbup:
