Description
152,000 miles | FSH | 2 Keys | MOT until March 2027
A genuinely cherished and exceptionally well-maintained Golf GT Sport 2.0 TDI 140, owned by me for the last 10 years. The previous owner kept the car from 2009, giving it unusually low ownership for its age.
This is the desirable 140hp 2.0 TDI engine without a DPF, making it a simpler and increasingly sought-after Mk5 Golf. Most of its mileage has been motorway driving and it continues to drive superbly.
