Someone coming from a 1.6TDI SE Golf might think it's a beast, but no-one already in one or a GTI/R is going to think that way, and most people already here that don't have one already but want one will have one on order.

I did see a beast today with a devilish numberplate - Nissan GTR "K666KEV" in Gosforth, Newcastle. No Renault influences on that Nissan!

Yes, preaching to the converted on a gti/gtd forum  :rolleyes:

Seen quite a few Nissan GTRs lately, they're becoming a common sight round here.  I'd still have one though  :wink:  R's however, are a much rarer sight.

I think we need to cut Messrs Wrexham VW a bit of slack here as it's only a bit of sales banter from the description and they are sponsors after all.
Which leads me into saying that as above - maybe a little bit more interaction on the forum in ways that won't get you shot down in flames would be welcomed, you did set yourselves up for a bit of a fall there even if the description was very tongue in cheek.
In forum speak - if it doesn't have 500bhp then it ain't a BEAST! We're a hard bunch to please.

As for the new broker price versus the slightly discounted pre-reg'd GTD you're offering there, perhaps people forget that brokers generally offer low to zero part ex prices so if someone doesn't want a potential long wait for a basic spec GTD then there's always the chance that Wrexham might offer you a very attractive part ex package which will swing the figures back in their favour. You don't know unless you ask!



And now I'm going to give myself a huge pat on the back for resisting saying Rectum VW anywhere in my post

The GTD is hardly a beast unless you're scope is or has been fairly limited. It is, by modern standards, a "warm hatch", quite a good one, but face it, it is a warm hatch.

The GTI and R a fine "hot hatches" but most would not consider them to be beasts either...

It did make me chuckle, though...  :grin:

I would say the gti and gtd are both warm hatches but they are also excellent all round cars.

Seeing as it's new reg day on Sunday, unless the new owner puts a private plate on it, it's going to look like a second hand car too. Being a 64 plate will surely have an effect come trade in time as well.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

At least the tail pipes are clean this time.

Maybe Wrexham will be willing to negotiate a discount as its on Bridgestones :lipsrsealed:

Somewhat harsh comments chaps. Wrexham VW are a forum sponsor - although l agree the ad wording was less than inspired its not a bad offer. If its within 100 quid or so of a broker price but without the four month wait that will appeal to some.

The car is registered on a 64 plate and the full registration is shown in their link.

Fair enough they are a sponsor, but they might have been wiser targeting forum members who don't already have a mk7 GTI/GTD/R.  And it's not that difficult to do a bit of homework on your target audience.

It's a beast  :evil:First they have posted it in the wrong section second it's not titled correctly it isn't and will never be a beast all though I do agree with the description of missing the wait for one and the price isn't that bad either.
