Looking to buy...my first Gti!

[Marbles86]

Hi guys and girls,

I've been toying with the idea of selling up my current car (focus ST 2.5T) and buying a 3 door GTi or even an Edition 30 if i can stretch that far. Is there anything i should look out for, such as worn parts that need changing at certain mileage/year?

Any advice would be brilliant

Cheers

Jake

Don't do it. They're all awful. Buy a Corsa 

In all seriousness, do it. They're wonderful cars. So much fun to drive and look gorgeous.

Unless you can get proof that these things have already been replaced, set aside some money and replace the first three items in this thread here:

Welcome along matey, always great to see another car being taken up by someone who's planning on caring for their car instead of thrashing it around.
