hi, i'm over near worcester. Can't believe what great motor the mk5 is. I've had a collection of vw's mk1's, 2's, corrado's, vento's, passats but this golf is the nicest drive so far. Also gone from driving a discovery 2 doing 23mpg to the golf doing 60+mpg! free's up some cash to spend on my splittie!
