Who's coming from a non-VW car?

[99swift99]

I have just sold my Audi TT as my first child is due in 7 weeks

Before that I had an Audi A3 1.8T.

I have also had a Mark I and a Mark III Golf

I had a Peugeot 205 GTI many years ago which was huge fun.. until the engine expired at 135,000 miles

Switching from A3 also

Im coming in from a Nissan, ughhhh. This will actually be my first VW, but i've used to own a BMW a long long time ago.

I actually am coming from an 03' Mitsu EVO. I sold it to a friend that HAD to have it so, I sold it to him. Now the GTI is my new weapon of choice. To be honest though I am not new to VW products though. I owned a 91' G60 Corrado, 2000 Passat, Audi Allroad 2.7T wagon, Audi A4 quattro (wifes car). As much as I loved my Mitsu I just always missed a good quality cockpit to sit in. I was actually in the market for a Lotus Exige and was going to get a beater to drive during the week. Since this car has become available(finally!!!) I decided to get my daily driver 1st, then in a year or so get the Exige or stretch a bit and get a used 911 GT3 I would LOVE to have.

I'm coming from a Japanese car too. Looking forward to German engineering and quality. :thumbsup: Probably trading it in instead of private party sale

Comming from a Dodge SRT-4...first Euro:biggrin: btw, i see so many specs for this car that im not sure what to believe. Does anyone know the actual 1/4 mile of this MK V? Also before anyone flames i watched most of those 5th gear vids on here and nothing was said.

I came from VW Golf GTI Mk 4 2.0 115 bhp,used to have an Audi A2 1.4 SE and a Fiat Punto Active Sport.
All nice but nothing compared to the Mk 5 GTI,

currently driving an old vauxhall banger around. but in under a week, a golf 1.4 s will be mine. i reckon 6 years down the line it will be the R32 golf, which is faster than a GTI.

Currently i am driving an 04 GTI 1.8T but the mkV is way much better in all aspects.

newbie here, i pick up my V on Monday. Had a 91 GTI bout 6 years ago and absolutly loved it. I will be trading in the infamous HEMI for my new GTI. Had the Dodge Magnum RT 340 HP 390 FT LB of torque. Had to get away from Dodge, the car kept having to many unexcusable problems.

I own a Honda at the moment, and have always been a fan of Hondas (You can't deny they build solid cars) but for the money this new GTI is a steal with all the great features. I'll soon be a VW convert :thumbsup:

I currently drive a 2003 Mitsubishi Verada AWD. It's basically the same as the Diamante but l believe the Diamante was not available in North America with All Wheel Drive.

It's a great car, but now l want to downsize.

The GTi is my choice, now all l have to do is wait for the September delivery.

Dodge SRT-4. Had it for 3 years. Time for something else. DSG pulling me in strong.
