Title: Searching for a gti
Post by: sunnyv5 on April 04, 2015, 10:23:48 pm

Hi guys

First post. I am looking to buy a gti with a dsg gearbox. Currently have a mk4 golf v5.  :driver:

I am struggling to find a low mileage example. Any tips on where to look and any top tips when looking at mk5 gtis?

Places to look are eBay, Gumtree, Autotrader, for sale section on here, Pistonheads, and keep an eye on local forecourts.  I also kept an eye on preloved, not the greatest but another place non the less.

Took me about 8 months to find the right car, but totally worth the wait.

Regards, what to look out for when looking at one of these cars, do a search on here, quite a few threads on that with loads of good info.   :happy2:

Good luck with the hunt.

There are still some low milers about.
Pistonheads is a good place to look.
