- SURPRISE! Welcome to my NEW CAR, a 2007 MK5 Golf GTI! The MK5 is a car I've always loved, so I couldn't resist to 'pull the trigger on one' now the GT86 has been sold. What do you think?

Thoughts? 🤩
Was looking at one of these if I sell my 140😅
Very nice mate, can’t go wrong with a classic gti
Solid choice I’d say . Nice one mate 👍🏻
Amazing car mate you won’t be disappointed
I’ve got a mk7 golf r now.... come and check it out
I had a 3 door black mk5 with a manual and the smaller wheels when they first came out. I’ve had a DSG mk6 and a manual mk7 since then and I think back to my mk5 the most fondly. I adored that car.
Idk if it's coincidence but ever since I watched Hamza's videos on his 200k GTI, my feed has been flooded with all these other people buying GTIs.
This is so true
I think the MkV is the best all round GTI, and people are beginning to realize this, particularly as a fun buy for a (young?) person who does haven't have a lot of extra cash for a fancy car. Great blend of style, performance, safety and all round usability. As Clarkson commented when it was released "It may not be all the car you want but it is all the car you need."
It’s called the Algorithm.
@@Lamxrfx no shit Sherlock 😂
@@abithampi9474 you said it’s a coincidence lol
*TR Hamza enters the chat*. Three door looks so much better as well imo. Since everything is going the same with five, this is nice.
Hamza’s RS3 is a beast
It’s a nice car but the 5 door is far better looking🙄
Obviously saw how well hamza did with the mk5 and copied...
@@iDriveNotxDrive will have to disagree there. Don’t like the look of five door hatches at all. Doesn’t look right to me.
@@phcollins101 same with me. Always thought hatchbacks should always be 3 door
My dad had a MK5 GTI wolfsburg edition whilst I was growing up. Absolutely love these cars. Will always have a place in my heart!
Please leave standard dude, these are getting rare and are so good
I’ve owned the exact same specification car for 8 years now.. actually it’s the longest car I’ve owned by far and I’ve no plans to sell it
What mileage is it on? I’m looking at one with 85000. Looks mint! But not sure what mileage is considered high in these. Cheers
Can’t wait to see more of this! Congrats🙌
Thanks!
Lovely looking car, Looking forward to seeing the new content.
Thanks!
always had a soft spot for a mk5, definitely one of the best looking golfs to this day!
Naa Mk6>
No its not
@@ekimandersom4478 yes it is lol
@@Lamxrfx love the mk6. But still more fond of my mk5 thunder bunny gti
Yep im currently looking for a MK5 with a 6 speed manual. Want a fun turbo car to mess around with. Was thinking of a Focus ST but hate the interior (the plaid cloth GTI interior is the best fkn thing ever!) And the STs are kind of expensive seeing as how the oldest you can buy is a 2013. I can pick up a mk5 for 5 grand which means i can pay cash for it, continue with having no car payment (car payments are the worst, my friend just locked himself in for 8 years.... 8 bloody years) so i think ill be happy with the Golf. I can do most of my own repair work and most of the problems with the MK5 arent too big of a deal. I have another car as well so ita no big deal if one of them id down for repair for a few days or weeks.
Great to see you back in VW 👌🏻land can’t wait to follow the mods as they occur during 2021
Thank you!
Interesting choice! Congratulations on the new car! Looks awesome
Thank you buddy
Snap! It's a cracking car, get a turbo back, intake and some tuning done, completely changes the beast!
Yep thats my plan. Downpipe, full exhaust, intake and tuning to start off with. Later, after an engine refresh (i bought a spare engine to rebuild) im gojng to do bigger turbo, intercooler and injectors and see if i can get it to about 350hp at the wheels. That should be plenty and more than enough to get me in some trouble lol
Yes mate, awesome pick, can't wait to see the mods! Congrats!
Thanks!
Awesome cars. I got 2007 one myself too with the same alloys. Mine is 6 speed manual box which I love. It is mapped stage 1 and decat with full ram air induction kit - really makes the car a beast! Enjoy!
Good job luke looking forward to the content on this bad boy, nice little daily 👍🏾
Thanks buddy!
Love it! Congrats mate👊
Thanks mate
I prefer a manual but the DSG farts sounds amazing... Can't argue with that
Yes mate , Nice choice for a daily , I'm golf mad , i got a mk7 R And the missus mk6 gtd so looking forward to the new content 👍🏻
Thank you!
Nice car. Always felt that the Mk5 was the Mk that most Golf fans forget...it's a great car.
Hopefully u don't wrap it like the BMW
😂
You've never owned a car with over 100k miles?? I've never owned one with less LOL
I've owned this exact model since 2017...bought it at a little over 85,000km and its still going and driving amazingly at 150k+! Its a great car!
Love my Mk5., it’s my favourite GTI, such a well-balanced car, and the engine pulls at any revs, feels like more than 197bhp.
Unmodified ones are getting rare so my advice is not to do anything you can’t put back to stock. Everyone wants a Mk5 now and I think values are set to rise..
Feels like 197hp until a fiesta st gaps you 😘😂
@@Ron_Swanson Which it could of course!Golf GTI has never been the quickest, its class and all-round abilities are what make it special 😉
@@andrewmontague2636 you’re not wrong there 👍🏻👍🏻
Ron Swanson yeah but fords build quality is absolutely shite! 🤡
@@Ron_Swansongive me a mk5 anyday same power around a track good bye 👋
just got a 5 door dsg mk5. love it!

he's literally living the life I'm tryna put together. well done mate
Lovely looking car mate I love the DSG great choice 👍
Love it!!
Nice car! My first was black too :) Stick with the DSG, have had two now and done over 150,000 between both and not an issue. Haven’t come across a decent manual and took ages, just like you, to find my second mkv! RNS510 will bring the cabin bang up to date, kind of 😂
Enjoy :)
Good work dude, I'm thinking of getting one too.
Planning on getting one myself soon, now watching this video makes me want it evin more😍
If only the R32 wasn’t so detrimental to the pocket on fuel....😭
Get one, you won't regret it, absolutely in love with mine!
Nice to see you back into a vw missed your 7.5 R
I’ve just bought one very similar to yours. Black, 3 door, leather.. manual though ;)
They do drive well.
nice purchase mate, i keep looking at these myself
Thanks!
Go for it
Clean 💥💥👍🏾
ive had one a year. I've had a mk 7 golf r in the past, and this is more fun. That it cost me 2.5k and doesn't depreciate is very pleasing to me.
I have the same exact golf as you except i have the monza 1 alloys, i was planning off selling mine before covid, but now I'm looking to invest in it :D amazing car 10/10
congrats
bro
Loved mine 👌🏻
The mk5 has one very special place in my heart since it was my first vw (black 3 door gti dsg) ! And love them ever since ✌🏼w ♥️
Good choice . Iv been wanting one myself and will be interested in your feedback.
Thank you!
You speak very well, sound like someone off the radio, easy listening.
Great car love a mk5 gti
Thanks!
Next video "TR Hamza shows me everything wrong with my MK5 Golf GTI"
Cool classic car
Classic car in the making
I like the fact it’s a DSG, in fact I was hoping it was when I clicked on the video 🤣
Same I love manuals but with my GTI the DSG is insanely quick and smooth. Each to their own I say.
That golf looks nice! I also just bought mk5 gti with 140k miles on it
You finally got a proper car. Not that hunk of BMW junk. Well done Look.
I got a vw Golf GTI 07 dsg, been 3 weeks now fun little cars!!!
i owned a 2005 GTI DSG back in the day... Great car ! Driving a shitty focus now
Very clean and nice
Thank you!
next video - i sold my m140i
Royal steering wheels for a bespoke re rim at a decent price.
I have had 3 done and never been disappointed.
Yup, I’ve had two done by them. Great quality for not a lot of cash.
I just got a mk5 gti a month ago it had one owner has 130k miles and it’s a 6 speed manual it was a super good deal it’s been pretty hard to keep running straight but as they’re getting pretty rare I love it and will probably have it forever
I had a 2014 focus SE before 160hp my gti feels insanely fast compared to that 😭
Think I tried buying that one but I was too late 😂👍🏻
For the mk5 Golf Gti the DSG is much better than the manual. It's much faster and more responsive. Made a good choice👍
My face after seeing this: 😃
I bought a golf mk5 about a year ago at the dealership I work at. Guy traded it in with 16k on the clock. 2007 golf match... not a scratch... lol
This vs Mk8 Fiesta ST. Retro vs New. Soon come
Decent idea that
Brought my one brand new in 05 - it was the second one in the uk (five door)
That’s mega! Have you still got it?
@@hampshirephoto - no sold it 14 months later. But because they were so highly rated, I sold it for more money than I bought it for😀😀
@@hampshirephoto sold it after 14 months. But as they were highly rated, I sold it for more than I bought it for😀😀
@@simonbrigden8379 Result!
Thete great i baight black one in late 2005 ware only out few months then i got the 07 version with the spec R style body styl DSG steering gearsat hand great compared to my older 05 one i had first but great cars
Congrats on the new acquisition Luke! Eagerly waiting on the restoration videos I’m a real detail geek, so really really want to see how this is gonna get tackled! Loads and loads to do paintwork (hope you wont need a respray, coz of the deep scratches), plastics, engine bay. Full interrior makeover! Intrigueing times ahead indeed!
Thank you! It’s going to be great fun
Bro I am looking to buy a GTI too. Can I know how much was it? Thank you!
Lovely car but defo shouldn’t of taken that long to find one they are solid cars you got the BWA engine too ( the better one ) the only thing they need around 100k miles is the timing chain, cambelt and water pump and when you first get them I always do the cam follower then they are sound but yeah you’ll enjoy it !!!!
One of my favorite cars
Still have my mk5 GTI (14 years old) been running stage 2 APR tune for the past 9 years. The only thing that irritates me is the headlights, shit from the start, need the xenon option. Tune & down pipe are the best two changes to make. Traction from standing start (particularly in the wet) is a bit of an issue once you tune it up; but I can live with that for all the extra performance elsewhere.
And your car is worthless 😂
As it being a daily, what's it like on fuel? obviously drove reasonably not thrashed everywhere, well, maybe sometimes.
The DSG is dope! I don't know why people rag on it
Welcome to the mk5 family
If you're planning on getting another exhaust don't!!! Straight pipe you're stock exhaust.. SOUNDS AMAZING!!!
Great stuff,👍What did you pay for that year with 80k ? You must of really wanted certain specs like DSG and paddle shift & heated seats ect that's why you had difficulty finding one 🤔 As theirs lots of good cars about with manual gear shift available you just need to now we're to look I have a list of three available but they haven't got DSG option ect , Good luck god bless Stay safe ☘️👍🙏
I paid £4,600
To hell with the manual... you purchased the GTI with the "proper" transmission! Enjoy the drive with the paddle shifters, or just cruise, allowing the DSG do the work if you don't feel like shifting... it's the BEST of both worlds. BE HAPPY with your purchase and tell those ragging you over needing a "manual" to go pound sand!
I used to "feel" like you. Then I got a Mk7 with the DSG and I've never been happier. Matter of fact, if I changed to manual now I would be VERY unhappy.
VW DSGs RULE! They are faster and shifter better anyway.
I got a dsg one ☝️ my second one never miss a beat they handle so nice both mine were stock springs etc
Dsg is better than manual. Don't make it look modern. The mk 5 is a beauty as it is.
Still a good looking car...
Get a MIB2 head unit, it's a direct swap.
Had mine for 11 years and beat the piss out if it. Love my dub.
That’s awesome!
Also have the FSI and was the sixth owner. Brought it three years old and with the DSG. Hope you are able to enjoy yours as much as I have!
I had mine for 30k miles and abused it every day - it never went wrong. Keep an eye on the cam follower and you’ll be fine. Mine had 190k when I sold it! Revo stage 1 made a nice difference
@@Rb25patrol Very cool! My camshaft failed at 60k. Luckily covered under warranty. Been APR STG 1 for about 9 years. No complaints! Currently at 155k 🤘
I'd recommend fitting the upgraded xenon lights and changing the trans oil especially since it was driven in a city a lot
Yes man! I have subscribed for the Mk5 content. I have recently bought one myself so looking forward to these vids! 🤘
great choice! love the GTI brand. proper drivers cars with so much heritage!
Think it looks better than your 140i
Fair enough!
100%. It’s a design classic. Something the 140i will never be. Keep it looking stock though..
Take the wrap off, put the seats back in and you've got a mint car.
No way
I was going to get one of these a few years ago and ended up getting a Cupra instead. I felt like as a DD the golf had a few extra bits but overall the Cupra was mechancially better and if I didn't want the power I could have got an FR Leon that are half the price of the golf. Not as a nice but a valid alternative.
Cupra?
@@niagarafallsnewyork3659A cupra is not mechanically better than a mk5 GTI you’re faded bro, Cupras have a turbocharger which literally blows plus the amount of issues with the engine is unreal 😂
@Mitchy9 I don't even know what a cupra is thought they might have meant supra
@@niagarafallsnewyork3659 nah I tagged the wrong person bro, I was replying to the guy who you replied to my bad
@@Mitchy9 all good and they memt supra right or is a cuppa a thing 🤣
Mint
KuruHS says : The Golf was Better. 😆
how much did you pay for it?
VERY NICE IM A GTI GUY
Sorry, does not compute: you allegedly searched for 6 months and ended up with a car that was 5 years overdue for its cam belt & water pump change - ie, it has a rubbish service history - and 5 previous owners who obviously didn’t give a f***. Guessing the DSG is also waaay overdue its service?
Where were you searching for 6 months - Siberia??!!
Plenty of Mk5s avlbl with fewer owners and better srvc histories, unless your budget was £1500 tops?
Yeah it seems a bit odd
Just thinking that, never seen this frla before, does he know nothing about cars or just lies for 'good videos' like a lot seem to do?
If it took him 6 months to find this one imagine how long it would take him to find a good one 🤣
Can’t wait to see how this pans out! I think it’ll surprise the hell outta you
Get some pears soap on the steering wheel!
Sweet! I picked up my first GTI a few months ago. Upgraded from my first car (Fiesta Zetec S) to a Golf GTI MK7
I had one of these. It was fantastic.
A decent daily. It looks classier than a Focus ST but for me a Focus ST is a better car in every area. Sounds better, faster, handles better.
Great video gonna be like the stradman soon 😂👍
Dsg is technically speaking way better than Manuel just facts there quicker and more chill when cruising
For similar(ish) money you might have gotten a manual edition 30? Bit more headroom for power with the k04
ED30s are about double the price of regular GTIs
@@davidholt7577 a clean DSG mk5 90kish might set you back £5k a higher mileage manual eddy maybe £7.5k. (He said he would have preferred a manual) By the time you go k04 or hybrid k03 you might aswell have have spent a bit more on the eddy... but hey just an opinion
Take it down to VRS
Loved my Mk5 GTi. Bad tune fried internals though....
What company?
@@ChutneyGames Irish company, prefer not to.
Great to see a Golf back on the channel, interested to see what mods are around the corner!!!
That looks on the face of it to be a really good, clean project car. Far better than some of the beaten up examples out there.
100+K miles should be a walk in the park to be honest. Golf V has gained cult status big time. Can't wait for the content 👍🏾👍🏻
MK7 for the win
