A few months ago I purchased a 06/2004 (MY05) Bora V5 sport. Shadow blue, 170K with the 5sp tiptronic auto. It is the last of the Mk4's so has the climate control, charcoal sports seats, 17" factory rims, sporty suspension (not lowered but slightly firmer springs and shocks) and woodgrain trim.

About 8 years ago I owned a 2003 5sp Golf 2L. Loved the car but had to sell it when my daughter was born due to lack of boot space. At least the Bora has a large boot so when I spotted it I had to buy it.

Got it for a good price as the heater core had been bypassed and needed to be replaced. A friend and I replaced it ourselves so I saved a heap on labour as it was a very labour intensive job.

The car is so much more fun to drive than my old TJ magna that thing handled like a boat) and easier to park too.

I look forward talking fellow VW enthusiasts
