Description
2008 Volkswagen Golf Mk5 Automatic (58 plate) 1.4 TSI Petrol with DSG Gearbox for sale.
I am the second owner of the car and it has been a reliable daily driver. The car starts, drives and runs well, and the automatic gearbox shifts smoothly.
It currently has 154,802 miles and comes with long MOT until November 2026 and tax until May 2026.
The car has part service history with the majority carried out by Volkswagen up to 2022.
This would make a good cheap runaround, first car, or ideal for someone mechanically minded looking for a project.
Known issues (reflected in price):
ABS pump likely needs replacing (ABS warning light)
Boot wiring loom issue - boot release button and rear wiper not currently working (common Golf wiring issue)
Nearside front driveshaft CV boot deteriorated (noted on MOT)
Small front oil leak advisory on MOT
Cosmetic condition:
As expected for the age and mileage there are some scratches, paint wear and marks on the bodywork, particularly around the front grille area and rear bumper (see photos).
Interior is in good condition for the age.
Overall the car still drives well and is perfectly usable, but due to the issues listed it is being on for sale as spares or repair / project.
No warranty implied. Viewings welcome.
Cash or bank transfer on collection.
SOLD AS SEEN.
