Cant decide.

Morning All,

From Sydney and cant decide which to buy out of the 2005 turbo diesel Golf or the 2007 1.8L turbo petrol.

If you do a lot of km's go the diesel... But if you plan on doing any mods in the future, I'd spring for the petrol... Or save a little more and go for a GTI... MK5 GTI aren't that expensive these days.

2007 1.8L turbo petrol Golf? Am racking my brains trying to recall a 1.8L turbo engine in this generation (MK5) Golf. Are you sure of your year model and engine capacity? There was a 1.8L turbo petrol in MK4 Golfs (GTI) but from memory MK4 was replaced by MK5 in 2005.

Happy to be proven wrong, perhaps my memory is fading with age!

Cheers
