Hi

I am really considering buying a MKV GTI this will be the most expensive thing I have come close to owning & my first 'proper' car so it is a big decision.

My questions are how much should I be paying for 05 plate one? What things should I watch out for? Excluding insurance aprox how much does it cost to own per annum service, tyres etc?

Thanks

You should pick up an 05-plate one for £10k-£12k, but it really depends on spec, condition, mileage etc. MKV GTI are very reliable cars, although some here have had a few problems. Service costs depends on what mileage the car has. Tyres will vary in cost depending on what brand/size you buy, but budget for approx £100 per corner +++

Hi Rob001...

I have a Mk V Golf GTI 05/June with 22,000 miles which I am trading in about June time.

It has the following...

Reg 28/June/05

5 Door, pearl black DSG

Multi Function S/W with paddles

Full Leather interior

Arm Rest

18" Monza II wheels ( brand new )

iPod Prep lead

Side / rear 30% tints

Full VW service history

Mud flaps fr/Rr

I have been given a decent trade in price which I will take, but I'd rather it go to someone like yourself.

I have been asked by another person about selling it to him and just waiting for him to get in contact.

I'm after £12,500 for it, no offers as I'm happy to trade it.

let me know if you are interested or not..... Wheel in picture are to be sold separately....

if you ask British Car Auctions to search for my old car (PM me for reg) for you that was my car that I handed back

06, 33K miles, mint condition. Only change of work location really forced me to give it back.

As far as I know its still not gone to auction and is probably crying in some warehouse somewhere.

Auctions can be uncertain, but that car was mint.
