between £2500 and £3500 depending on the condition

no offence but why would you want to buy a V5 MK4 when you can get a 1.8T for the same money or a TDI 150 both being superior to the V5

is the V6 out of your budget?

Well said Ridge, stole my words. Dont bother with a V5. Get a 1.8T or V6.

you would be looking at probably double that for a TDI

what about the V6 or 1.8T?

leather is the future!

Leather is Kool, but cold in the morning!  :embarassed:

Is it me or do 2-4 on the heating control of the seats do nothing?

V5 will drink....prepare to spend some time at the petrol station if you have a right foot made of lead.

£65 for around 220 miles on my V6
(98/99 RON @ london prices!!)

Bring on the derv...

Heating, like any car, takes its time to warm up.

On a more seriuse note. Get the 1.8T lol.

Len, you are wrong
I had a V5 Bora & i can not remember putting it up against you 16v  :undecided:

You are right about 1 thing, I have had my fair share of VW's and probably not keep this v5 golf for long
But while it is in my ownership, i will enjoy every penny i spend on fuel and driving yet another fine VW motor  :wink:
