Nah -no way... my 05 Gti is worth more than £14,995... an 07 even with a basic spec would be around the £19k mark

im 100% positive it was a gti in candy white witht hem monza wheels, with the tartan interior etc, i didnt see the mileage but 99% it was an 07.
Mk 5 GTi, Tornado Red, Leather, Xenons, 18" Monza II's, Sunroof, 6CD in Armrest, Winter pack & Tinted Windows... soon to be adding ED30 front spoiler, plus R32 sideskirts... then getting fully colour coded!
New engine fitted when car was at 27k... last one went "noisey".

go and have a look at lookers volkswagen garage in middlesbrough ir youre local or phone them up, i didnt find out anything about it was just parked outside and it had £14,995 in the window, so there might be a catch but im just saying i saw it for £14,495 on an 07 plate it might not be a brand you but was definetely 07. i will phone them tomorrow i apologise if i was wrong, but im 99% sure, because even my dad said that looks cheap for an 07.

im 17 so it would be my first car, i saw an 07 gti for sale for £14,995 which is only £280 a month, and i get about £200 £250 week, but it would just be the insurance that killed so looks like i will have to wait a bit  :sad: lol

From a caring mothers point of view, don't do it you WILL kill yourself, get youself a nice little 1 litre polo and potter around for a couple of years first. :smiley:

Put it this way. They probably wont insure you at 17 on a Mk4 1.8T, let a lone a Mk5 2.0T

That last comment is sooo true.
