Turned into a lame thread really.
Fact I have changed my MKV GTI for a MK6 GTI
Why probs because I felt like a change bored of the same car, However I loved the GTI so logical step was to mix it up to a MKVI which when i drove I really enjoyed.
Am I bothered ive lost £12k in 2years on My MkV, yes obviously.
Do i think im getting a worse car for my money? No I think im paying for an upgraded mkV, Obviously the car is based on the same MKV platform. However its been more refined, Basically taking off from where the MKV left off. Tweaking slightly little area's for improvement and thus is a better car.
Am i aware im being ripped off over the price of the car? Yes obviously the GTI is expensive for what it is. Essentially I could buy myself an FQ-300 or S3 for similar money with much greater performence. However im still 22 and ill have plenty of time for those cars in the future.
Would I recommend swapping a MKV for a MKVI? Prolly not at the moment there's just not enough good changes to warrent the £15,000 quid extra im having to put up. Having said that however if money isn't really an issue the MKVI is a better car and put it this way.
If money wasn't an issue for you guys and you had both sitting there outside which one would you ride out that morning in? I think it'de be the MKVI for me anyway hence why ive bought one. MkV's are currently common as dogsh!t imo. I see upwards of 15 everyday I think. Call me a snob or w/e Im almost sure im from poorer backgrounds then most trolling these boards.
