2005 Volkswagen GTI 1.8T Review
Prosquick, solid, reliable, overal good looking car Constiming belt is known to drpop around 60k miles, if something breaks its usualy alot of $$$
35
Great For Any Taste — i bought this car a few months ago, it was one of the best decisions ive made...it had higher mileage but its nothing for a volkwagen...the car handles very well and is extremely fun to drive. performance wise there could be more there but for a turbo 1.8l the car is very quick, its also amazing on gas (if your good with the pedal that is) Primary Use: Commuting to work

Awsome Car! — Could use a few more horses. Transmission is the smoothest i've driven yet. Huge aftermarket for parts. Planning on an APR chip, FMIC, Turbo Back exhaust, Forge Diverter Valve for the time being. Can't wait to auto cross this car. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Prosquick, practical, reliable (vw), bags of fun, cool brand Consblack

Mk V Gti Turbo — Ideal car for the petrolhead with a family, does the school run and has plenty of room for the shopping, cheapest of the current hot hatches to tax and insure and goes like absolute snot when you put your foot down (this ones been remapped to approx 240hp with uprated brakes and performance filter). Car has famous vw reliability and build quality and will hold its value better than other makes. I keep making excuses to drive it and I can't think of anything else that I could replace it with, but then why would I? Primary Use: Family transportation | ||

2005 Gti Review — the volkswagon GTI is the most compact and sporty car in its class. you would zooom through the highway in tight corners the GTI has good handling and acceleration. the car is fun to drive on several occasions. it has to 2 door look with 2 seats in the front ant 2 more seats in the back i would truly suggest this car for younger people looking for speed at a low cost. you could hook up the car in many ways. the best car to buy! | ||

ProsGood gas mileage, and this car looks sexy! ConsCan't really think of any. It is small on the inside if you have alot of people in it.

German Engineering Is Pretty Good — Well the fact that I smashed it into a snow bank a few years ago, and now it needs new shocks kinda sucks. I been putting it off but it could really use some new ones. Oh and also I been wanting to put a new race clutch in it, but just havent quite got that done yet! VROOM VROOOM. Oh yea don't forget about the cold-air intake to! Primary Use: Commuting to work |
