The Appeal
The fifth generation VW Golf with the excellent TSI engine which is equipped with both a supercharger and a turbocharger. This example is the more powerful 170 BHP version and comes in a very smart Metallic Grey with a clean Black cloth interior.
The TSI engine is available only with the GT Sport trim – and this features suspension that’s been lowered by 15mm, keeping it eager through the bends, with good body control and plenty of grip.
Although there is no service history with the car, it appears to have been well looked after and being a Golf, its durability and reliability is a done deal.
