gutted its gone

[buddfridge]

Hi,
As the title says my golf gtd mk7 has gone...
I have wanted a gti/gtd since my teens many years ago, I sold my car and traded in the wifes with credit taken out to just to get one.
I have got to say I loved the car but ..vw Listen grinding steering on locking , sqeeking suspension and the font assist not wanting to work eventually took its toll.
I have swapped the car for a bmw f30...not the car I wanted..but bomb proof.
I hope one day the golf is the same..I am not happy , I have debt and now no gtd....love the gtd , miss it, still want it back.
but I feel let down by vw..

That's a shame..... Sounded like you had cause to reject the car?

You'll be very happy with the F30, fantastic all rounder.

thanks raff..
I will one day get a gtd again..fingers crossed.
I like the f30 but loved the gtd.

Sorry to hear about all the issues you had with your car. If it was me however and it was a car I had wanted for ever then I wouldn't have been so hasty to get rid of it and I woułd have been on the phone to VW everyday until they resolved it or replaced. You may have been entitled to reject the car and ask for a replacement if they could not provide you with a permanent fix.

No offence is intended here but if you are in debt would you not have been better buying a cheaper car rather than an F30 until you got yourself sorted?

No mate ..did a straight swap for the f30..and yeah now I wish I had the ba..s to stick to my guns and keep no matter what..my big mistake.
but that said it was brand new I only covered 1600 miles or so and was expecting no hassle with such an expensive car..my first brand new car for 15 odd years..even the f30 is used.
so i feel that vw have let me down.
