Absolutely adored this car and already regret selling it - need for a bigger car forced sale.
Dream to drive with plenty of power and faultless DSG gearbox.
Will have another GTD some day!!

Bought a 2007 Jetta Automatic that already had 111,000 miles on the clock, drove it to 136,000 miles, only sold it because I wanted to change up a few years. Gave me no trouble at all. Friend of mine drove one to 180,000 miles, and never a problem with it!

I regret the day i bought this car. Never ending problems

in 18 months, i had problems with the handbrake, clutch, windscreen wiper motor, a blown engine!!!!! a turbo, a crankshaft sensor and an EGR valve. has cost 1000s

I absolutely cannot wait to get rid of this car.

It has caused me no end of bother since the engine went, as if enough wasnt fixed on it. I am sick of it.

I bought my 2004 Golf in 2008. It has always pasted it's mot first time with very little work needed. Here are the problems the golf has given me, in 2011 (115'000 miles) the dual mass flywheel give up. I replaced it with a cheap solid flywheel which I never has given any problems since ( I now have over 200'000 miles on the car). In 2012 the electric window regular cables on both front doors failed. I replaced them with non genuine regulars which cost about £35 each. no problems with them since as I put plenty of grease around the new cables when fitting them. In 2015 the ignition key inner barrel totally failed. the first signs of the this going to happen is that the key will not turn in the barrel now and again. I replaced the inner barrel with a secondhand one and then reprogrammed the system. The power wires to the boot may break at the top left hand side where the boot lid is hinged. The turbo intercooler pipes can blow apart at the joints when under pressure. I sealed all the intercooler joints with tiger seal a few years and have not had that problem since. Any other problems the car has given me are only due to regular maintenance issues. Although my mk5 Golf has given me problems I have clocked up a lot of miles on it and hope clock up many more.
