Sunroof is a rare option.

#38: Re: just bought a GTI!!!! Author: badj, Location: WiltshirePosted: Tue Jan 18, 2011 12:25 pm ---- If you do a check - for the record I always used mycarcheck when trading and it was spot on everytime and shows everything you need to know IMO (even stuff HPi didnt mention?). - it will tell you the VIN number, as mentioned put this into service box or ask someone here to do it and you'll get the lowdown on what is what.
Then, if you go to pick it up, make sure you check all the VIN plates against your printed off carcheck/HPI and documents.
Sometimes there's no smoke without fire..
#39: Re: just bought a GTI!!!! Author: nicp2007, Location: lancashirePosted: Tue Jan 18, 2011 6:34 pm ---- well i bought it,
got it for £700 in the end because it had a fuel leek,
the fuel is coming from the top of the pump because is it over full so i got a free tank of fuel too
i think it is only leaking from there because he has been playing around there trying to get the fuel censor to work again
also the seat won't hight adjust
#40: Re: just bought a GTI!!!! Author: magistar, Location: new zealandPosted: Tue Jan 18, 2011 6:40 pm ---- just wondered, was the diablo red colour a free colour option or was there an extra charge for that colour? just curious bout the history of my car colour =p
anyways, always thought gti's came with sports bumpers. Always worth to check the car history before getting it : )

That's what I paid for my moonstone GTi on a 99T - needed a couple of bits but apart from the clutch thrust bearing dying, it's been great so far.
