Many car enthusiasts regard the Mark 1 Gti to be one of the best cars ever made due its amazing handling. In fact, in 2004 The Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk I was declared the greatest car of all time by Auto Express. The first MK 1 models raised power output of the 1588 cc engine to 110 PS - 108 hp. Successive models got larger and heavier with higher levels of spec, but slightly less exciting to drive, according to many enthusiasts. MK 4 models were a significant development including the V5, V6, 4MOTION with 115 bhp (2.0) to 150 bhp (1.8T).



In 2005 the VW Golf MK5 GTI confirmed its potential by receiving the BBCs Top Gear's Car of the Year and also top Hot Hatch Award. The journalist team felt it was the first true replacement for the original Golf GTi built 25 years ago.

    Golf/GTI 2.0 8v motor. Great car, very solid. Could be a bit faster but then the excellent MPG would be compromised. I get around 35MPG avg between highway/freeway driving. Bought the car 5 years ago in 2004 for $3000 and it's probably still worth about the same amount. She's coming up on 200K ...

    Niftly little hot hatch. Ex TT, Golf Mk4 GTi, Passat 1.8 Turbo engine can have the Ecu remaped to 152Kw & 328Nm. Volkswagen Polo is good value for money, not the best hot match but it does everything well and has a quality interior and good safety features (Electronic Stability, 5 airbags, EBD, etc) ...

    Exceptional value for money for a classic Volkswagen Golf GTi Mk2 motor with decent performance that carries a cast-iron reputation not rivalled by much in the hatchback market today. Parts easy to source and plenty of speciallists to keep it in good nick. Need a garage and time to give them the pro ...

    I've owned two Volkswagen Golf GTi Mk3 16vs for a total of 5 years now. In general excellent cars - Not super fast but with a few mods such as a 3.94 final drive, lightened flywheel, chip, filter and airbox mods the pace becomes easily equivalent to that of a standard VR6 before even looking at pro ...
