2019 Volkswagen Golf 2.0 TSI 245 GTI Performance 5-door DSG Hatchback

Description

This 2019 Golf GTI is one of those cars that just feels right — sharp, responsive, and packed with tech. I’ve had it for a few years now, mostly just driving around in Fareham, Hampshire, and it’s been reliable and easy to maintain.

It has adaptive cruise control with front assist, forward collision warning, and a city emergency brake — pretty solid safety stuff. The 12.3-inch TFT screen shows all the details you’d want: speed, fuel, trip stats, temperature, and even fuel economy tips. I use the driving mode selector a lot — Eco, Normal, Sport — and it’s actually helpful when you're trying to save fuel or get a bit more drive.

There’s a driver alert system, a warning buzzer if you leave your seatbelt off, and a stop/start system that kicks in when you stop at traffic lights. The rear view camera and heated rear windscreen come in handy for parking and winter driving. The interior looks sharp too — red GTI badges, body-colour mirrors, and that black front air intake with chrome trim. The seats are still in great shape, and the electric windows and mirrors work smoothly.

I’ve kept it well looked after, and it’s still got the original trim and all the features. The price is £19,732.50 — it’s not cheap, but it’s a solid car with good value for what it offers.

If you're looking for a reliable, tech-savvy hatchback with a bit of performance edge, this one’s worth a look. I’m not selling it through a dealership — it’s just me, keeping it in Fareham, Hampshire, and looking to move it on to someone who’ll enjoy driving it.
