Are you thinking of getting a 1.9 tdi? or are you going for a petrol? :)

+TimeLord1984 Yeah I would recommend one for sure, they are good cars :D

+Thomas Talks Well I am now the owner of a navy blue Golf 1.9 TDi Match 5 door manual. Happy with it and the first upgrades will be some nightbreaker headlight bulbs and some LED sidelight bulbs. It's an 08 reg with 61k miles on the clock

+TimeLord1984 you've got yourself a nice car there ! Tip don't be tempted to get an eBay "chip tune" most don't do anything and if they do they just over fuel and damage the turbo. the torque though in second gear at about 1800rpm is lovely

+iCloud Thanks. Very pleased with it and no intention of tuning it. The dark colour shows scratches which is a pain but I've used autoglym super resin polish followed by autoglym HD wax to improve matters. I know a paint guy who can sort the deeper scratches. 68mpg on a good run at the weekend and will manage over 600 miles on a full tank no problem

+TimeLord1984 Excellent! Hope you have many happy miles!

Oh that is impressive!! Oh no what is the issue now?

Thomas Talks steering fault 90% of mechanics told me steering rack ( the actual fault was steering torque sensor or something) ended up having the whole steering rack changed then the problem returned so had the engine light fault reset my steering would also lock up if the light came on meaning I couldn’t not steer changed the sensor problem still returned for a second time so I had to buy a code reader for my car and it it happens just have to reset the code other then that it’s lovely to drive nice and smooth

Thomas Talks has been well looked after and engine will go beyond 150/200k but at this point one fault leads to another so I am debating just getting rid as the money it’s starting to cost me especially for a older car

@@Hackneyboy20 yeah all cars hit that point I guess! I am currently running a 2004 Lexus SC430 haha

Hi there, Yeah insurance seems to be based on the cars engine size and performance at our age, so even if you got a brand new equivalent the insurance would be similar even though purchase cost is different :/ Its a great wee car though, hope you enjoy it!!

Thomas Talks I got gifted this car for my 19th birthday. I cannot find insurance less than 3000 pounds.....

Have you tried Admiral? When I was 18 I got insured on it for £1300 through them :)

Im insured on a mk5 gt tdi 140 for £2300

19yrs old

Are you asking what it revs up to?

Oh really?? I have only ever driven auto's in Left hand drive...

Obviously

Are they not always the same?

Sadly not no :( That came in the facelift models :)

Hi, yes the Golf SE does come with Lumbar support in the front seats :)

+Thomas Talks hi does it have electric folding mirrors?

If you go on parkers.co.uk you can get the specifications for most cars will tell you everything from 0-60 times mpg and also the standard and optional equipment for the different modes

+hakman239 oh cool, thanks

About 50mpg (UK)

Actually, it is the best looking Golf up to date.

@@Corsa15DT after the mk7

@@wakaflockaproject the mk7 is starting to grow on me. But the mk6 is ugly as the first day it came out. Its either the 5 or the 7.

@@Corsa15DT depending on ur budget the Mk5 for the price is probably the best option
