Badge up as a GTI?

[Clewsy]

Hi Guys

I have seen a few GT TDI's badged up as 'GTI' on the back with the 'I' in Red.

Are they meant to be like this? and would I be a Chav if I badged my GT TDI 115 up as a GTI?

the only TDI's i know of that are badged as GTI's are either the 150bhp model of the Anniversary model.

for the rest it mainly depended on what badges the dealer had in stock!! but i reckon as a general rule of thumb the following applies

TDI - all silver is the 90 or 110 models (might be others)
TDI - red I indicates the 115bhp model
TDI - with red D & I is the 130bhp
TDI - all red is the 150bhp
GTI - is most likely the Anniversary model which also had the 150 engine

then you see some badged as GT TDI..........

more than welcome to badge it as a GTI as its quicker than the 2.0 and 1.8 n/a GTI models

Def leave it, looks better the TDI badge me thinks and Ive had Gti's before. I got the silver T then red DI looks cool enough for me

theres a diesel round the corner from me with gti on the back with a red i not sure which one it is though its deffo not an anniversary

i think it was down to whatever was supplied with the car at the time.. although all of the gt(red i)'s i've seen have the optional winter pack on them (btw, i have a red "i" on my gti pd150)

The GTi badge with the red i is off the 1.8turbo PETROL GTi, hope this answers your question, the anniversary ones had the all silver anni badge on

[Say bye bye]

Ive seen a 150pd badged as a GTi red i

The red I is meant for a 1.8t, but that doesent mean you cant stick em on anything else tho the same as I can stick an R32 badge on mine, that dont make it an R32 tho
