Description
If you’re looking for a cheeky little hot hatch that’s just as fun as a cat meme on a Monday morning, let me introduce you to the 2018 Volkswagen up! GTI. This pint-sized powerhouse is the kind of car that makes you want to take the long way home, just so you can feel that 1.0-litre engine dart from 0 to 60 mph in a sprightly 8.5 seconds—faster than your mate can say “let’s get takeout!”
Finished in a stunning Tornado Red with a sleek black roof, it packs a punch in the looks department too. And with a full service history (you can practically see VW ticking boxes), you know this little beast has been pampered like a Kardashian’s puppy. The last service? Just done in January 2026! That means it’s like a birthday cake with all the good bits still intact—no stale slices here.
Climb inside, and you’re greeted by the premium Beats Sound System rattling out your playlists, making your morning commute feel like a private concert. The Winter Pack adds heated seats that will melt away even the chilliest of days—the only thing that should be cold when you're driving is your drink.
Economy-wise, prepare to be blown away; it sips fuel at an impressive 59 mpg. And given its low emissions, the up! GTI is not just a fun hot hatch—it’s a sensible choice too. With a fresh MOT and zero advisories, it’s ready to hit the road with no worries.
In a nutshell, if you want a small car with big character, the Volkswagen up! GTI is like finding the perfect episode of your favourite show—it just hits the spot every single time!
