Mk5 engines
« on: 27 June 2012, 21:35 »
Ayt guys never posted this side forum before  :lipsrsealed: :grin:

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?

Iv got around 4k to play with and dont want to go back to a
Mk4 so was looking at slightly newer shape cars :undecided:

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:

I just thought that is a lot of car for the money and after a few beers it intensified that thought.  :nerd:
