    Hi all,

    I'd like to introduce myself, my name is snodge182 and I really like the Golf GTE Plug in Hybrid.

    Would anyone like to share their opinions or experiences with the Golf GTE?

    As no one else has replied yet, i'll give you my two peneth, but I know nothing about this engine.
    All my cars for the last 30 years + have been diesel.

    Buying cars privately can be a minefield, caveat emptor, buyer beware.

    You really need to take someone along who knows about cars, as there is virtually no comeback legally on the seller, unless he told you an outright lie which can be proved.
    I wouldn't hold out much hope in getting your money back.

    You don't sound as though you know too much about the mechanical side of cars, so would suggest you take it to a local VW Independent mechanic.

    The broken pipe you mention sounds like a breather pipe & may be responsible for some of the oil leak.

    Get him to give it the once over & provide an estimate for repairs.

    Come back on here & share his findings so we can give an opinion.

    hi philipharmes,

    Thank you for your reply, I have re-edited the post to take away the original post as it no longer needs answering - I have scrapped the car.

    Like I have now mentioned in my new edit, it would be interesting to see what issues the users of Golf GTE experience.

    What do you currently drive?
