Description

Celebrating three decades of Volkswagen's most iconic hot hatch, this MK5 Golf GTI Edition 30 represents one of the most desirable modern-era GTIs ever produced. Shooting Brake is thrilled to be offering this example finished in deep black, with 76,049 miles on the odometer, and paired to the highly sought-after DSG dual-clutch gearbox. The Edition 30 sits apart from the standard MK5 GTI thanks to its uprated 2.0-litre turbocharged engine, producing approximately 230 bhp (so some 30bhp over the stock MK5 GTI), delivered via the more robust K04 turbocharger. The result is a car that is quicker and widely regarded as one of the best tuning bases Volkswagen ever offered. Visually, the Edition 30 benefits from a number of subtle enhancements with body-coloured exterior trim and discreet badging further differentiate it from lesser GTIs, giving the car a discreet and understated look. Inside, the cabin continues the theme with Edition 30-specific detailing, including red contrast stitching, GTI sports seats and a driver-focused cabin that remains a benchmark for ergonomics even today. The DSG gearbox pairs perfectly with the turbocharged engine, making it equally happy carving through your favourite B-roads or covering motorway miles with ease. Highly regarded by enthusiasts and increasingly hard to find in correct specification, the Edition 30 represents a sweet spot in GTI history: Modern enough to use daily (ULEZ and other emissions standards compliant), yet analogue enough to feel truly engaging.
