Description
Here for sale is my mk5 golf 1.6 fsi match.
I've owned this car for just over a year.
When I first got the car it had been off the road for a year.
Sensible offers will be considered.
Viewings welcome
MOT Till January 2027
In order to get it back on the road. It had
- All round discs and pads
- A new battery
- Rear nearside caliper
- Handbrake cables
- Handbrake cable guide tubes
- A new boot seal
- An engine mount
- Thermostat
- Front anti roll bar drop links
Since then I've repaired anything that's needed doing. It's also had
- Timing chain replacement at 156,000 miles
- 4 brand new Bridgestone turanza tyres. Still with 6mm tread all round.
- The headliner has been redone as it was sagging and this is a common issue on the mk5s.
- Full services every January at MOT time.
- Gearbox oil change
- New rear wishbone
- New rear bottom arms
- New rear top arms
- New rear shock absorbers
- New rear anti roll bar drop links
Features of the car
- Auto headlights
- Auto wipers
- Steering wheel buttons
- Cruise control
- Rear isofix
- Android auto/Apple carplay stereo
- Air conditioning
- Aftermarket LED wing mirror indicators
Unfortunately there's no receipts for the work I've had carried out because it's all been done in house. You can check MOT history since I've owned it for proof it's been looked after.
I also have spare material from doing the headliner if you wanted to wrap the pillars in the matching fabric as the headliner is currently black and the pillars are grey.
It's also only been ran on esso supreme since I've owned it.
Bad points every car has them
- The clutch is a little high
- 3rd gear crunches intermittently. This is because of a worn syncro. It's done it since I've bought it and I've had no issues with it.
- Age related marks on the paintwork.
I realise there's other golf's with better bodywork out there but I can guarantee none of them have had the same amount of work done. Its also a very well specced car given it's age. This car hasn't been run on a shoestring budget and has been looked after. I'm only selling due to buying a new car I couldn't pass up on.
