Test Drove the GTI

[ENERG1]

Drove past the dealership last Saturday but didn't get a chance to drop in and have a test drive.

Luke did they actually have many GTIs there?

There where two mk6 Gti's in stock Both BLACK 3 AND 5 DOOR DSG,i think enough to drive one home!

And the car i test drove was a white gti with dsg.With 120km's on the clock.

and outs of the car.

A few weeks back I started my hunt for a Golf.

First dealer I spoke to was Michael at Kedron. Very knowlegable.

Subsequently, I visited/spoke to four other dealers and then ended up returning to Michael to order the car.

I recommend him.

Drove the Mk 6 GTI this morning....

Not much difference at all from the Mk 5 GTI (as everyone has probably noticed).
The interior is a nice upgrade though.
Suspension seems firmer, and DSG seemed abit slower to shift.. (?)

Unsure to go for a new one or a nice 2nd hand Mk 5 GTI.

....have to be manual though.. haha.

Has anyone done any back to back testing of a car with and without the ACC option? If the car isn't equipped with the ACC, what setting is the base car closest too?

Does it really make a difference? All these options really add up and it's one I don't think I could justify!

My dealer told me I couldn't see a 3dr until next year?

Good to see you made it here Brian. A shame I couldn't find what you were looking for price wise with the Golf, but good to see you didn't end up in the Alfa.

Regards,

Mark.

A different dealer might have one. There is a red one at my dealer.
