Hi All

My name is Peter and I am from SE Melb
Currently I own a 2009 Mazda 3 MPS (GenII) and my wife and I have been looking around to buy her a VW Golf GTI (MkV)

She owns a 1997 Nissan Pulsar LX that she has owned since she has had here licence and is looking for a nice upgrade

As stated, I own a Mazda 3 MPS and am an active member of the OzMPSclub.com and am also looking to learn and contribute to this one (search, search, search)

Pics are below of my baby, I know its not a VW, but 4cyl turbo FTW

GTI has the DSG6 with wet clutches so you'll avoid those infamous problems. Just keep in mind the DSG6 needs its oil replaced every 60,000kms which is an expensive service ($1200+). Different dealers have different prices, and Independant VW specialists such as Volkspower are considerably cheaper than the dealers, so shop around.

If you see a car you want @ 5x,xxxkms, that could be a bargaining point.

Hi All

Thanks mate
Appreciate the info

Really can't wait until I can start buying and modding a little MkV to my unsuspecting wife!

Hehe
