My VW Golf 1.8T (GTi Turbo - 150bhp) and me have had some serious fun over the past four years.
It is a great car, with loads of power, handles well, and once I replaced the Pirelli 6000 tyres with Michelin premacy's it actually stuck like glue cornering.
All golfs have a water pump issue (you must ...

I have had my Gti for about 3 months. I got it used so it had some issues that i needed to get fixed. It is however a great and powerful car for a 1.8 liter engine. It holds up well and accelerates very quickly. I would recomend this.

I'v had my Volkswagen Golf GTI 1.8T Turbo for 2 years and i must say it's great, faster than my old Ford RS Turbo, and it drives so well due to the independant rear suspention. it looks great like a proper classic.

I've had my gti for 2 years now and it's never let me down. In that time I've become a dad and the boot can hold all the things you need for a short holiday or a day out. I don't have plans to change it the future unless it's for another one in the same colour and engine. GTi and vw golf fit perfect ...

Easy on gas and very sporty, a real head turner. Great handling, though I ' ve seen one user say that his Mrs. lost it during a corner at a low speed (excuse me mate but you're Mrs. can't drive for toffee, I took many sharp turns at least 120kmh and never left my lane), reasonably easy to medium to ...

My Golf Gti 1.8 T is an amazing ride, I always get compliments. This is a car I want to run into 500k. I don't think I could upgrade, unless to a 4 door. Fast, smooth, car that can still hold up to quick aggressive curves.
Amazing blue light interior, very sharp and trendy looking. Car sounds and lo ...

Wonderful transmission, fun to drive, great clean and smooth lines. This car is fast, and still easy on gas. It is lighter than the MkV GTI and has only 20 fewer hp.
I wish I had a six speed.

This is a shame as the car is good looking, lots of extras and smooth to drive. At the time of owning this car I had a standard Escort RS Turbo which walked all over the Golf. You just don't get enough from that Turbo. You want it to push you back in the seat and be aggressive and mean and make lots ...

I've just bought a Volkswagen Golf GTI 1.8T on a 'W' plate and after some initial concerns with an electrical problem caused by an incorrectly fitted car kit, I have to say I love this car. Compared to the Peugeot 206 XS I owned prior to this, it is simply on another level as a motor vehicle and I s ...
