If I didn't already own one, I would buy this!
So it’s finally time to move on to another car, I have spent too much on this one and would like some change. This car has been a lot of fun and has been looked after well, there are some issues however you will also be buying a car that has had so much replaced it’s almost new…..
This car has a lot of potential, and is ready for the next level. It’s quick for a diesel (230bhp), sounds great, and handles extremely well (and looks the part too), not to mention you can get it down to 3.8L/100KM freeway driving (I’ve gotten over 1000km from tanks before).
Info:
- DSG
- Graphite Blue
- 160,000KM
- Heated leather seats
- Rego expiry August 2018

Recent purchases:

- New lower balls joints
- New lower control arms and all bushings
- New engine and transmission mounts

- Interior LED kit from Supernovaleds

- Feynlab paint protection and water repellant treatment applied, should last a few years, makes it very easy to wash
Performance:
- Darkside Developments Downpipe and EGR kit
- 42DD Velocity Stack Intake (makes woosh and flutter noises)
- Milltek catback exhaust
- Prosport boost gauge in OSIR vent pod
- Bilstein B14 Height Adjustable Coilover Kit
- Whiteline rear adjustable sway bar
- Stage 2+ & DSG Tune by 3BAR (230+ BHP)
The bad…
- With the current power output, certain diesel fill ups can cause a stutter under heavy acceleration, still unsure of the issue, could be fuelling or injectors
- There is a vibration when turning hard and fast to the right, I have replaced almost everything I can to try and find it, but still have not been able to find it.
Price: 10,000

If I didn’t already own one as well. ( same colour as mine 🤘🏻 ) I’d buy as well. That’s a very cool GT with only a few minor hiccups and some VERY expensive mods
FYI my gt is modded very smiliar as yours. I also had a fuel studder under hard acceleration. Was a simple fix. The pre fuel filter attached to the internal fuel pump (inside tank) was clogged. Thought I’d share as it was a really simple fix. Was bloody annoying, hope it helps
Put a new pre filter screen on. Remove back seat , open fuel pump access. Replace screen. Simple.
