Hi everyone.  After my brief dalliance with Subaru, I'm back on the dubs.  I've just bought a Mk5 2.0 GT. 

Not a GTI, I know, but as I work from home and the wife will be driving it to work every day I couldn't justify the expense!

Clever cars those GT's, I like them. I hope they bring out a big version soon, i.e. 2.0L and higher boost.

It's actually a 2 litre normally aspirated petrol engine (150PS) in my car.

It's the model that the 1.4 TSI GT/Sport replaced.

Didn't know that (should have noticed it in your post) - do they not make the 1.4 anymore? Bit odd if not... If so, they were either a testbed for a future engine or perhaps they have had reliability and/or profitability issues.

[richy]

No, mate - the other way around.

I got mine 2nd hand. They don't make my model any more...  The 1.4 TSI replaced the 2.0 FSI.
