Snoopy Posted October 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 yes they do the new R32 as a 5 door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGTI Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 Glad you think so.. Different perspectives I think - can't always join in on some threads - like UK dealers -I've no idea but they generally sound like a dud lot. Ours are probably the same except for the fact that I personally know the dealer I purchased through. Not so much a friend but someone I've known for a long time. Winter tyres is another one! No need for winter tyres down here. Plus finding other GTi owners here is a bit like finding a pig in a poke (not sure that its the best phrase) and you guys have got the knowledge via a generally a longer ownership experience though this always isn't the case. So there are a couple posts for you to look over from Zoom and I while you eat your muesli and consider all the other C@*p thats going on in the world in the Times, The Guardian or the Independent. Or are you a Sun man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunner Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 5 door. Had to sell my Audi TT as there was no room for little Leah Frances and Mum. Any regrets.....YES! Thank goodness I have 'wipe clean' leather, for the mess an 18 month old creates is awesome! Things I dont like compared to my TT, car looks like a common rep mobile from certain angles, switch gear is cheap and nasty......No in car remote to open boot! You have to fanny fart around with the remote, not good with an 18 month old! Apart from that....nothing....Well the GTI should have been given 240-250BHP from birth and not fuzz over with a V6 psudo limo. Audi did the same. Folk flocked to get a V6, but the car that will go down in history will be the 1.8T 225BHP I bet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted November 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 I must say im quite amazed at the ratio so far 3 door 43 = 41% 5 door 61 = 59% I must say i was really expecting much more 3 doors on here and not that many 5 doors.

rouse Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 5 door all day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGTI Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 There are a few southern hemisphere owners on here and of course the 5 door is the only option in Australia and NZ. This might skew the results a bit in favour of the five door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentandy Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 someone should do a complete poll of all the options people have had! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Do you meen a pole listing all the optional factory fitted stuff? Not sure how i could work that one any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simonl Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 hmmm, considering there are 3,000,000 cominations you can have in the golf, that would be a pretty large poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Unless you just list each option and let it be multiple choice. That way people could vote and find out what the most popular options are if any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason_s Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 3 door, much more sporty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGTI Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 I guess you mean much more sporty looking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason_s Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 exactly. but i have to say thats not the only reason i chose 3 door. my soon to be wife got a 5 door car this year and were thinking of having kids when we get married. the decision was easy really. the kids can throw up in her car and i get to go out and play in the GTI... is that a man thing or just pure and unadulterated selfishness ?

OzGTI Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 And why not. The 3 door isn't an option here but I'd have to have a 5 door in any case - an elderly mother who neds to be tossed around in the back from time to time. I'm looking forward to seeing some 3 doors on the road when I in the UK in the New Year. Some of the pics posted here look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
