You should easily get a really good example of a MK5 GTI for that money. Wouldn't worry too much on mileage as condition is more important. Check it has a full service history along with cambelt and DSG oil change if applicable. A lot of the common problems on these cars like the DV and PCV are relatively cheap fixes luckily.
