I bought the car knowing it was pretty quick and upgrades can be easily done to it. Luxury was also important to me, so the heated seats and leather package was the selling point. it Currently has 175,000 KM's with no issues. With it's quiet, comfortable ride and small form factor. makes it great for driving around the city. With the rear seats folded down, it's great for camping trips or carrying tons of gear! I love the car.. i would only trade it for another GTI.

Its a great car, sporty with a good amount of power when needed. Good looking car from all prospective and is part of the GTI legacy. With out a doubt the funest car i've had and was completely worth the buy.

Love it. Amazingly quick with the mods I have done to it... very sleeper-ish, nobody expects a little old VW to blow their doors off.
I love it when people try.
Well built with true German Engineering before they moved most of the manufacturing to Mexico. Its been an excellent car to me and made me a true VW enthusiast.

I took one out and could tell it was having some engine trouble. If you find one in good condition I wouldn't tell you to buy it... then again I would be hard pressed to tell you not to buy it. It's good around town and is still fun enough to keep you from getting bored (if you're that sort of person). It's also pretty comfortable for a sporty hatchback.
BUT if you really want to get a Golf or Golf GTI I would really suggest picking another year than 2000-2006. Of course you COULD just pick one without the 1.8 liter turbo engine- but that wouldn't be any fun.

Bought this car new in 2000, due to the styling and
quickness. Within the first year, I had to return to the
dealer 4 times for window regulators that failed,
sending the window into the door, never to roll-up
again. Very fun car to drive, lots of bells and whistles,
but I'll never buy a VW again. Too unreliable.
