Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Hi guys,

    Picked up a used 2010 MK6 Golf GTI about 2 weeks ago for a price I could not go past (wasn't even planning to purchase a car!). Previous car was an 06 Astra SRi Turbo which I loved and still miss it.

    Located in Brisbane, Capalaba area.

    My car:
    - 2010 3dr Candy White Golf GTI
    - Manual
    - Xenons
    - Rear Camera
    - 18" Detroits
    - Leather
    - Sunroof
    - MDI + Bluetooth

    Still has a year warranty and is in perfect nik. First plan is to Bluefin and just enjoy it!

        Hey dude, just a quick question, if you don't mind me asking. How much did you purchase your car for? And was it a private seller? Im looking at buying one myself and the ones in the Brisbane area are fairly expensive and don't have some great features like yours does.

        Thanks mate!

          I'll definitely be keen on some cruises. Yeah the Astra's go really well, pretty much the same as a GTI with less refinement. I'll post a pic up later, it was a nice silver one, its in Townsville now.

          I work for a dealership (not VW) and had the Golf traded in by a customer. $27k.

              No, I sold the Astra privately. 27K was the driveway price of the golf. Like I said, it's not a realistic price for a private sale, I would have probably paid about 33-35k otherwise.
