Description
My Vw Up! GTI is unfortunately up for a sale - one of the best cars I have had. With it's 1.0L turbo charged engine - and is an absolute hoot giving much larger and expensive cars a run for their money! It's a really excellent driver's car, with sharp handling, superb 6 speed gearbox and an engine that revs freely, even the exhaust note sounds great. The car is in great condition, very clean as you can see in the pictures and I think one of the nicest colours for the Up! GTI - it just suits it really well, sitting on those superb low profile wheels. It has all the usual refinements, electric windows, DAB radio, Bluetooth & heated seats, however you wouldn't buy this car for the equipment; you would it for the absolute grin it puts on your face as you drop a gear and chase down more expensive exotica. Honestly - everybody needs to have experienced a GTI in their life! This car has been well looked after - is in great condition and has full service history, serviced by VW at 38,660 miles, 30,492 miles, 22,981 miles, and 8996 miles. I have also had the oil changed again just now as it was a year from the last service and it has a fresh MOT. I am a mature owner and always ensure the car is warmed up before going beyond 3000 rpm. It has Michelin Pilot Sport tyres all round.
The bad parts - it is unfortunately a CAT S, suffering minor front damage. I bought the car as such and had it professionally repaired - the repair is excellent - it required a replacement bumper & fog light and washer bottle. I have often bought CAT S/N cars and then enjoyed them at a much cheaper price than the equivalent and this is one of them. The Air conditioning isn't blowing very cold unfortunately but again it hasn't distracted me from the fun I have had with my GTI.
Thanks for looking.
