me likey :drool:
or keep looking for a black 3dr dsg mk 5 gti?

ive just had a crap wage due to jan and a few things that needed doing in the house so i,m 3900 behind schedule for my mk5.
i cant borrow any money and as has always been, the minute i get any cash saved up things start going wrong and the savings dwindle :cry:

and yet somehow when ever i borrow money and things go wrong around me i always manage to find the money for all of it!

sorry ive had crap day and needed to let off the groans!!

I'd love a mk4 R32, maybe a little more than the mk5 R32  :embarassed:
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

Buy whatever you really want. as you'll only regret it and it isn't really the finiancial climate to buy a car to sell it on a few months later...

We had an old V6 GTI.  Some small part in the timing chain gubbins broke and destroyed the engine.
The 4 pot turbo is a much better engine (engine of the year in the US).

maybe its just me who is thinking this on here but for god sake dont buy a mk4 golf they are so drabb mate regardless of even if it is the R32 all mk 3 and mk 4 golfs are just so plain and booring even clarkson says so lol for that kind of cash you be much better getting a mk5 gti for 11k you probably pick up a 56/07 plate no offence intended yust my oppinion and the same oppinion of many of my car enthusiast friends etc  :smiley:
