How many gti's have you owned ?
« on: 18 July 2015, 19:34 »
Well, just ordered my third today. Lookers  on  Teesside  with a decent  deal through carwow.Gti  performance pack  etc. Delivery early October . The other two were Mk2's one red three door one metallic grey five door. Both from new ;red one was a C registration 1985 . Blimey thirty years ago ! I imagine many on here have had loads more than that but just how many and over how many years ?

I'm on my third now too.

1. 2006 Mk5 Gti bought 2009. Kept for 3yrs.
2. 2009 Mk6 Gti bought 2012. Kept for 3yrs.
3. 2015 Mk7 Gti picked up end of May. Had for nearly 2 months now.

Unfortunately I think I want an R now  :sad:

Had a Mk4 2 litre GTI, wasn't brilliant
A Mk5 GTI DSG which I loved! Sold that to go travelling and needed a run around for when I got back so bought a Mk 4 V5, that was great but kept on breaking down.
Delivery of my Mk7 should be this Friday!

Mk5 GTI 08 in black, DSG, 18" monzas with a Zenec satnav thrown in for good measure.

If I can count my MK2 Scirocco, then this MK7 will be my third.
