popeye Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 Hi just joined yesterday was looking for some advice im after buying a tdi but they all seem to look pedestrian in comparison to the gti if i buy a tdi could i get it looking sportier for about £1000 or should i just plump straight for the gti i like the economy figures on the tdi. any advice appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Phase Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 can you afford to run, insure & buy a GTi? would you enjoy driving a petrol over a diesel? do you like the moral highground of "we accelerated at the same speed... but I got double your MPG HAHHAA "if you can't decide why not test drive both?you can get a Rieger bodykit for a TDi, I'm not a fan of over-stated body kits but this one looks really subtle, apart from rear it's supposedly the closest you can get to looking to a GTi I'm after a TDi because I love 78.5mpg and paying £35 road tax!
