Mk7 vs mk 7.5 - Thoughts please

[Dutch77]

Provided they don’t want keyless entry and push button start, the 7.5 Performance Edition 1 skipped that little trinket lol

The 40 Years Editions (presuming that’s what you meant by ED40) are a bit steep. You been keeping an eye on if they’re selling?

Ouch. Somewhere along the way that just became a standard and would be annoying to live without!

Sorry yep, that's my short-cut to be consistent with ED35. I haven't been following for to long but I would be shocked if the $40k+ cars were selling (but hey, you find someone silly enough to pay almost new price for one, full credit to you).

There were two dealer cars under $40k, but I think one sold Saturday, so leaves a red with roof in Adelaide but for whatever reason it hasn't got a VW service history so that's an issue.

They're a great car, pick of the GTIs, but they aren't worth almost new pricing.

It became standard for GTI on the MY16 in mid-2015, so it was weird the PE1 missed out. The GTI Original skipped that one too.

Good luck on a 40 Years, sounds like they’ve kept their value well.

That is weird for the PE1, Original I get because they basically cut everything back to give it that sharp sub $40k price.

Cheers - it is one of a few options on the list.
