Hi all,

I found this forum about 2 weeks ago and have not looked back since.
I've been a big gti fan for years, ever since I owned a mk2 gti 16v.
I have been looking for a mk5 GTI for a while now but yet to find the one!!!

Can anyone tell me the pros and cons of buying an import?
Is there any differences to the UK supplied cars?
Any info would be great?

Thanks

H

Hi H DUBS,

Welcome to the forum  :happy2:

Have a search in the main section as the import topic has been covered a couple of times, otherwise post a new question in the main Mk5 section  :smiley:

Welcome to the forum H Dubs  :happy2:

If your looking to buy an new import then give it a good going over as it will have probably been sitting around for months, and you only get a 2 year warranty on imports, which starts when it arrived so you could have only a year or similar cover.
I cant remember the all the differences, but check the wheel is on the right side.  :laugh: Only kiddin, i think you may not get a spare wheel or nice leather manual cover, but i could be wrong on these.  :smiley:

Thanks Guys,

It's not new Top Cat. ED30 on an 08 plate, imported from Germany. I know about the 2yr warranty, and you're right I'm not too worried bout that either. I was just thinking bout the price difference, re-sale etc...
