Hi all got my GT yesterday and i've got to say that I have owned some very fast cars in the past ie Integra DC5 and R26 Megane to name just 2
but these cars seem to be a fantastic compromise for someone like myself with a growing family.
My first thoughts are positive I like the power it's very smooth and nippy enough to keep me happy and that W (winter) button is fantastic
it really does do exactly what it says on the tin oh it also saves fuel as when I press it the mpg goes up and yes the power does go the other way
but blimey VW really have outdone themselves.
Other positives are the build quality is fantastic as the car looks and feels brand new even tho it's 4 yrs old and has 50k on it I just couldn't get over the
fact that I chopped in my 2008 R26 with 30k on it and as soon as I jumped in the golf it felt like I was driving a brand new car out the showroom
but I do think this has a lot to do with it's first owner who has looked after the car as will I but so far so good.
Could I just ask other owners what type of MPG they are getting as I took for a test drive I drove it in heavy traffic and then various speeds and I wasn't
being gentle and I returned 36 which for 40min drive half of which was stop start I thought was bloody good.
Also could somebody tell me was the auto dimming mirror std?
