How does your GTi make you feel?
« on: October 11, 2013, 04:30:35 pm »
Simple question, complex answers I expect!

I just know that there are very few cars I've owned that have given me the same feeling as the GTi does.

It seems to just have a perfect combination of things for me.

Every time I get in it I just get a sumg, comfy, "bad boy" feel.

Maybe it's the chunky wheel, the leather seats, the sharp turn-in, the DSG or the fact that in normal driving it has plenty in reverse.

It's the first metallic black car we've owned with a black interior so that might be helping too.

I just know it really pumps me up and makes me smile whenever I get in it and start moving.

After 8 years of ownership it still feels special to drive my GTI. It's an all round great car and I feel content every time I drive it, no matter what the journey.
Btw metallic black is the best colour as well!  :happy2:

It makes me feel like I spend too much time at the petrol station.


But I still enjoy every time I drive it so that's what counts!

I love the mk5's, and getting happy with how my ED30 is now.
Constantly toying with the idea of selling for the reasons I want a bigger house and have a baby coming, but having got in it last night at the airport, I forget how well balanced, sharp and pokey it is - I would miss it desperately.

So I'll hang on for a wee bit longer  :happy2:

Loved it. Right up until the accident. Now it just doesn't feel the same and I no longer feel the same about it. My life feels empty now.  :sad1:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
