I've gone all euro.. Golf mk5 tdi newbie

[Tdi boy]

Ive always had japanese cars & time for something different,

Just by coincidence a family member was selling the vw as I was just about to buy a new polo gti.
For a tidy sum I bought the golf, with only 7000 original kilometers ! I couldn't pass it up.
Being driven to the shops & back it's whole life, it's only driven 400kms since January according to its books & still smells new inside.

Specs:
07' VW Golf mk5 comfortline
2.0 turbo diesel 103kw 320nm
6 speed DSG
15" alloys
Factory sunroof
Heated leather electric seats
Climate control

Everything else is standard but I believe that for a 5yr old car the build quality & features are far more surperior to newer asian & aussie makes. It's so comfortable & easy to drive & the torque is amazing.

Future plans are exhaust upgrade, rcd510 head unit, springs, HID kit, 18x8.5's & viezu tune.

But for now it's a daily.

Mate you're going to love every moment in this car. I've had mine for over a year now and still have a smile when I jump in and drive it.

Exhaust won't give you any performance increase but a tune definitely makes a huge difference. Enjoy!

Yeah thanks for the exhaust advice i suppose bigger turbo = bigger exhaust, maybe just a cat & muffler delete? Either way it's a great daily & will def get a tune soon.

Congrats! Good choice of colour and some nice low km's there too. She's barely run in at 7,000km's :banana:
