[Clint]

Hi, i have the oppertunity to buy a 2005 gti...... it was up for £7750 originally, which i thought was to expensive..... anyway, they reduced it to £7250, so i put an offer in of £6750..... they have told me they will sell for £7000
Mint condition inside/out
71,000
custom made blinds for back windows and rear window
FVWSH
DSG/auto
full winter pack
full luxery pack
Looks stunning, newly revamped 18 inch monzas

My wife is umming and arring about paying that much for a 05 plate....... IS IT WORTH IT ? is my first question...... and what can i say to the wife to persuade her its a good buy 

thanks

I sold my 05 GTI for £6300.  Nothing extra on it at all except for Monza II's and good tyres and FVSH 2 owner.  Depends what you want to pay....
