Title: Hope to be a GTi owner in the next few days.
Post by: golf nutter on August 01, 2011, 11:22:42 pm
Have taken a deposit on my Impreza STi PPP tonight...balance coming by Friday.  So...i have to start seriously looking now.

i would be grateful for any links to cars for sale you guys might be aware of.  I am looking for a 07 - 08, less than 30k miles, 3 door, FVWSH, unmodified (for now  :wink:), manual gearbox, up to £12k, prefer a dealer.

anything to especially look out for whilst testing one, please add your comments here.  Thanks.  :happy2:

If I were you and you do plan to modify then you may as well look at ones for sale here, or Edition38 which has a large MK5 for sale area which is regularly updated.
I would buy lightly modded too, as you are bound to save a few £, as they have done the work for you.
Should be able to find a nice motor with ease for that price.  :smiley:
