  • FS: 2007 VW GTI 3 Door 6 Speed White

    Hey all, thought I would try this here for a few days before braving the Kijiji people.

    For sale is my Candy White 2007 Volkswagen GTI, 3 door, 6 speed manual with 165,000 km.

    SOLD!!!

    No trades or lowballs please.

    I’ve owned this car since 2010, when I bought it with 56,000 km. The highlights are:

    • 2.0 litre turbocharged engine (200 hp and 7.1 L/100km)
    • 6 speed manual transmission
    • Leather interior
    • Sunroof
    • Factory roof rack included: base carrier bars and ski/snowboard rack
    • H&R sport springs (1.5 inch lowering)
    • Major service completed in December (coils, plugs, injectors and valve de-carb) at a cost of $1300+

    I recently (December 2017) had Tunedub replace the fuel injectors and perform a valve de-carbonization on the car. I also recently replaced the spark plugs and ignition coils.

    Additional things I’ve had repaired are some rock chips and cosmetic issues on the front bumper, front fender, and hatch, plus new factory grille (old one was rock chipped and faded) and a new fog light. This work was done by Screamin Paintworks.

    The only “issues”:
    • A few dents, dings and scuffs from parking lots that you would expect from a car of this age/mileage
    • A bit of a dodgy repair I did about 6 years ago to fix scrape from the P.O.
    • Needs a new windshield
    • The AC needs a recharge once a year, as there is likely a slow leak in the system – if you choose to charge it up in the spring, it’ll keep working through the fall. Should be repaired

    Selling to free up some funds for my project car.

    Good luck! For a long time I’ve said I’d love a white 3 door mk5 6speed in the garage for the weekend. Not the right timing for me unfortunately but this one looks well sorted and I think your price is really great. Best of luck with the sale - hopefully you don’t have to get as far as Kijiji.

            I sure do . . . I've been messing around with the dreaded subframe repair and also fun stuff like installing stock Euro headers and an OS Giken diff. It's also the daily now, which means I don't really drive the GTI

                    What do you guys think about a big price drop on this thing? Now SOLD!!!

                    Got a bit discouraged by tire kickers and lowballers so pulled it from Kijiji but I'm back for more punishment! Here's some more recent pictures, warts and all. Pulled the crappy old 3M off the front - she looks great!







                    ^ See repair I did to a scuff from the P.O. about 6 years ago - panel should likely be resprayed



                    ^ Door dings, the worst of which was self-inflicted while working on my other car - ARGH



                    ^ Hail dent on rear panel



                    ^ Another hail dent on the roof



                    ^ Corrosion at fender bottoms - other side looks the same



                    ^ Detail of some rock chips on the hood



                    ^ More rock chips



                    ^ Small chunk of paint that came off with the 3M yesterday



                    ^ Ending on a positive note - resprayed bumper and new grille!
