i was in the same predicament as you tanks with my driver but i had a good reason to get rid, my driver was ***cked so i bought an 8v GTi about 2 weeks ago and its lush shame i cant drive it untill september because insurance will kill me!! but oh well. if you have the cash mate and think about insurance etc then go ahead and get one the difference between the driver and the GTi is INSANE
Well i only passed my driving licence this year, the insurance on my driver is £600 and a gti is £800, but i am willing to pay that.
I have talked this guy down to £500 for his GTI, its in really good condition, so i am temped to look past the 5dr thing.... its in atlas grey which i really like, not as much as black of course but second best. I want to test drive it again, but i want to test it for a day or two.
