Hi from Newcastle Upon Tyne
« on: 03 April 2022, 20:55 »
Hi all,

Been away from Vw for about 5years when i had a Golf R estate, that had to go to fund a new house purchase so spent 5years in an Audi A3 Saloon. Got a great deal trade in so decided to pull the trigger on a Mk7.5 Gti (5 door)

Hopefully learn a lot of bits about the car on here. Thanks for allowing me to join

Welcome Pschende  :smiley: do I recognise that user name from VWROC in the dim and distant past?
The mk7.5 GTI is a brilliant package, it looks great, goes well, uses little fuel and is very well equipped. Maybe the boot is a bit smaller than you’re used to though…
