Going to look at a couple of GTIs today. Whice one to buy and why?

Both low mileage, one owner, full vwsh. 2.0 is cheaper to buy (and run, presumably).

Any wisdom, kind people?

I would go for the 1.8T.
It may cost more to insure but think of the fun you could have with 180 BHP !
Just make sure you have a good look around it and check things like
service history, belts, MOT. Also, take it for a good run.
If possible, take a mechanic with you who has knowledge of VW's.
Good luck.

Marko.

Thanks for the advice.

Unfortunately we didn't get to view either of these cars, as there are a few complications with getting rid of our current car :mad:

Hoping there will still be some decent ones around when we eventually get to start looking again!
