VIC Another newbie

Hi all,

I'm currently in the market for a Mk5 Jetta TFSI and joined up here to gather some VW knowledge. Seems like buying a car is as much of a headache as selling one, but hopefully I'll find one soon and be able to contribute to this forum.

Cheers, Luu.

Good luck with your search,the Jetta TFSI is a great car.

What are you selling,and what others are you considering ???

[shindeokure]

thanks mate.. recently sold my evo 3 rs. pretty much set on the jetta - awesome value for money, plus its definately a buyers market at the moment, so i'm just waiting patiently for one with the right colour scheme and options!

Check out carsales,there are always a few nice Jettas available.

What colour / options are you looking for ?

Jettas were always good value for money,even when new,as they are feature packed.

few tidy jettas on here for sale at the moment.
1 minter but the TFSI is turbo yeah?

[anthony]

Yeah,the TFSI/TSI are the turbo Jettas.

yep, from what i'm aware: the TFSI is the series 1, EA113 motor, and the TSI has a series 2 EA888 motor with a chain driven timing belt.
missed out on the white TSI! and the blue one from WA doesn't have a sunroof ..nothing else in my budget range i'm afraid.
anthony, do you happen to own a grey jetta? theres one floating around the glenhuntly area.

I had a Jetta foe 3 and a half years,which was Silver,and written off last year,so I now have a new Accord Euro,but a cousin of mine in the area has a Grey Jetta,with persinalised plates starting with the initials ZK.

Another nice,newish Grey 125 TDI in the area.

Are you in the area too ???

[shindeokure]

yep.. i keep seeing a gunmetel grey jetta in the car park at my apartment garage, will have to take a closer look at the plates!

[anthony]

There are lots of Grey Jettas around here,I think together with Silver,Black,and Graphite,they were all the most popular colours,with the Reds,Golds,Blue,and even White being quite rare...
